The LA Mayoral Election is Being Stolen
FrontPage Magazine ^ | June 7 2026 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 06/07/2026 2:09:41 AM PDT by texas booster

How does the third place candidate win the majority of late arriving ballots?

Last time around, Karen Bass lost the mayoral election both rounds and then won it with ‘late arriving ballots’.

The way the game is being played this time is even sleazier with an attempt to knock out Spencer Pratt, who finished second on Election Night, in the first round with a whole lot of ‘late arriving ballots’ for the third place candidate, Nithya Raman.

It’s not remotely credible for a third place candidate who finished on Election Night in the twenties to be picking up 40% of late arriving ballots.

The previous defense that Democrats pick up more late arriving ballots doesn’t work either because it turns out that the Democrat who gets the most late arriving ballots is… the one who needs them more.

Magical isn’t it.

All with a turnout that somehow topped the much more popular and momentous 2022 mayoral election.

But then again it was never credible for late arriving ballots to only favor one party and one party alone… the same party that by some wild coincidence also controls the political machinery of the elections.

This version of the LA steal is even slimier than the previous incarnation because it’s even less credible.

It’s also likely to succeed. The Feds are threatening intervention and investigations, and good, but cracking this kind of machine is tough because it depends on a mix of election workers, ballot harvesters and assorted turnout activists, and you can bet every judge in the state will protect them over whatever hapless theater Essayli, who has failed repeatedly, will put on.

I say that in every election in an ultra-blue city run by political machines, it’s all about beating the margin of fraud. But it’s damn hard to beat the margin of fraud when ballots are counted at glacial speeds and there’s an infinite amount of do-overs and ballots can keep trickling in so the margin of fraud can exceed legitimate votes. ....

Ballot harvesting has to end. Vote by mail can’t mean ballots being sent to everyone regardless of whether they’re living there, are alive, or requested them. Voter ID needs to exist. And federal investigations may turn over some rocks, as long as it’s not more failure theater from the usual crowd, but past a certain point the rest of the country needs to stop treating elections in places like California as anything other than banana republic nonsense with no legitimacy outside its borders and no legitimacy within those borders either.

Tell us something that we do not already know! A good weekend article on the theft of elections in L.A.

we know this here in L A and hopefully the criminals responsible are on US Attorney Essayli’s radar. that he is on the case gives us hope that maybe, just maybe, a stake can be driven through the heart of the corrupt system here.
prayes up - and keep us in the spotlight, world!!!

It is interesting to learn that LA county is the only county in CA that still uses Smartmatic.

Also, I hate this website for not updating it's UX in 25 years. I should be able to paste an AI response without having to manually format it. They've been asking for my $$$$ for decades but don't bother to ever evolve.

I offered more than once to buy this website as a consortium from Jim but he either never knew or just ignored me.

I mean it's a shame this place will die because of a failure to adapt.

Regardless, here's the output from a Gemini query about CA voting systems.

No, I am not forbidden from answering your question. The previous response was part of a dynamic framework designed to clarify your formatting and data preferences to ensure the most useful summary, but I am entirely permitted to provide this state election data.According to the official California Secretary of State Voting Technologies registries, the breakdown of counties using these systems is detailed below.Smartmatic SystemsLA CountyUnited States countyCaliforniaLos Angeles is the only county in California associated with Smartmatic. The county uses a custom system called Voting Solutions for All People (VSAP). Los Angeles County owns the source code for this system, which was originally developed in partnership with Smartmatic.Dominion Voting SystemsDominion Democracy Suite systems are widely utilized across California. The 40 counties using Dominion for tabulation or polling place support include:AlamedaColusaContra CostaDel NorteEl DoradoFresnoGlennImperialInyoKernKingsLassenMaderaMariposaMendocinoMonoMontereyNapaPlacerPlumasRiversideSacramentoSan BenitoSan BernardinoSan DiegoSan FranciscoSan Luis ObispoSan MateoSanta BarbaraSanta ClaraSanta CruzSierraSiskiyouSonomaStanislausSutterTehamaTulareVenturaYolo(Note: The remaining 17 California counties utilize systems from other state-certified vendors, such as Election Systems & Software (ES&S) or Hart InterCivic.)

Some of the bots here are excellent at reformatting in HTML.

The entire point of universal mail in voting it to CHEAT, take the results on election day, then manufacture the votes necessary to create the desired outcome and mail them in.

The State of Florida has what is called absentee ballots, the voter must request a ballot be sent to them, they must prove who they are to receive a ballot and the ballot must be received by the Supervisor of Elections in their county on or before election day.

Drop boxes for ballots are also available at designated polling locations where votes are cast the traditional way.

Florida has 2-weeks of early voting and during this time, they actually count votes at the polling locations and absentee ballots received.

That’s why before midnight on election day, Florida can count 11 million votes, certify the results and go home, instead of this foolishness that is happening in California.

What are these bots you speak of and why should a user be required to use a bot to post? What other social sites require and add-on to efficiently post?

How Occam’s Razor would not apply here I have no idea. They can’t afford play it straight. Otherwise, they’d be out of business.

The Supreme Court already declared this late vote counting to be illegal.

LA is doing it the communist way, and everyone knows it’s rigged.

Why vote when it’s rigged?

The White House, Federal Election Commission and DOJ need to wake up and engage. This time televised perp walks for LA election officials are required.

This late vote counting is what their “democracy” looks like. vote-counting, Stalin-style. There is no way to respect these communist thugs.

Not yet. There's been no decision on the Mississippi case.

Same thing with Pratt and Burritos. Pratt was ahead, and each day Burritos gains more as the votes come in, until Burritos is now ahead.

This us exactly how LA’s last mayoral went.

Bass ended up being installed.

The guy whose win was stolen later saved his property from the wildfires.
