Larson(Arnold supporter) seems to think that the election might take 38 or 39 days to validate and that no matter the outcome, the election result will be tied up in the courts forever!

SoS Kevin Shelley said that CA hasn't certified any recent election in fewer than 38 days. The new governor doesn't take office until the results are certified, so he seemed to be suggesting that we won't have a new governor until mid-November, at the earliest. If the election is close and a Republican wins, then it'll definitely be in the courts.

Well Helen, that's exactly what I am afraid of, is that this election might drag on for months...
