I thought they stopped counting ballots when it was clear one candidate had won and there was no chance for the others

are they trying to drive up the “popular vote” meme?

YES. All the more to weaken Trump’s “mandate”.

I have no early idea what all is on the CA ballot. But if there are local/state
races then they have to proceed to a final tally in those cases.

All the ballots have to be processed because of all the other races on the ballot as well as a record-high number of propositions / initiatives.

No state or locality will admit not counting validly cast votes, absentee, mail-in, or otherwise. Is anyone who knows the details making such a claim anywhere?

NO, that is a myth... they ALWAYS count every ballot, no matter what... if a ballot is cast it is counted, period. That claim that they stop counting once they know the state has been won by a candidate is PURE absolute MYTH and not true...
