Why all the fear porn all over again? My theory is because of the recall Election in California. They need an excuse for mail in ballots to cheat. If Newsom is recalled there is an excellent chance Larry Elder wins. Elder is their worst nightmare. A media savvy black man who has escaped their plantation.
If Elder brings back Election Integrity to California the RATs would lose dozens of seats and lose control of the House for decades.
The way I read the process, EVERY registered voter in Cal will get a mail in ballot.
