Georgia was very slow in counting votes in the general election, too. But unlike California, Georgia actually counts its votes - California just declares itself for the democrat party candidate the instant the polls close. As one of the few remaining Republicans in California, I may as well just throw my ballot in the ocean instead of mailing it in.
Same with my state. And since all electoral votes in my state went to Hilary Clinton, my vote was counted for her. BUT, go figure, my siblings are blaming me for Trumps election. They are beside themselves. I cannot believe the childishness of the Dems.
