In reply to the discussion: Three methods discussed in this video about what happened in California. [View all]Old Crow
(2,212 posts)16. No, the video didn't make the same mistake; only you did.
The point the videomaker was making was that at least one class of pollworkers in training were told to give provisional ballots to No Party Preference voters, which contradicts California election law.
As to how much of what occurred in California was a result of incompetence and how much was a result of fraud, that's hard to say. All the instructor of that one class had to do was read off the California Secretary of State's website, which has the information on NPP voters and provisional ballots correct. Instead, he gave the class misinformation. Just an innocent mistake? Perhaps.
