Board of Elections 'Discrepancy' Puts Mayoral Primary Vote in Disarray

[JohnSJ]

12. It isn't state wide here in California. Depends on the city, and our Open Jungle primary

system, is a confusing mess for some offices

In the last Senate election there were 30 plus candidates in that race, and the ballot was really something

In our last recall election for Governor there were around 100 candidates if the recall was successful, many making a joke out of it from porn stars to celebrities. It was a mess

Fortunately, this recall doesn’t have as many candidates this time, though our Secretary of State screwed up and didn’t list Newsom as a Democrat. He is suing to change that inept error so the ballot reflects him as a Democrat

On the other hand California goes out of there way to insure every vote is counted, including absentee ballots, regardless if there is a projected winner or not, which is why the final vote can take several weeks
