roughly a quarter of the electorate that return their mail ballots on election day.
So all that work can't even begin until after voting is completed.
California election expert Kim Alexander coined that sort of logjam, the pig in the python effect, because it takes a while to work through all those votes.
Yes.
And part of that is because we saw a similar dynamic play out in this L.A.
mayor's race as what happened to Trump in 2020, where Trump's
preferred candidate looked like he was going to advance to the general election as the first votes were counted, but then ended up falling behind as more mail ballots were counted.
Trump posted about this a lot, and we saw a number of other Republicans and influencers jump in as well.
Elon Musk, Ron DeSantis.
Here's Speaker of the House Mike Johnson talking to CNN's Manu Raju.
Even for Republicans who have not gone full bore into Trump's stolen election narratives, they've been bashing California.
It's just a pretty low-risk way to score political points.
I mean, every single election expert I talk to expects Trump to follow this exact same playbook in November if he does not like the way results are coming in.
You can sort of imagine a scenario where control of the U.S.
House rests on a few competitive districts in California...
We're waiting on those results for up to a week, just like we are right now.
That could be a potentially dangerous time.
I was talking to Tammy Patrick, though.
She's the chief programs officer for the National Association of Election Officials.
And she said voters should look at this another way, as extra motivation to tune out the noise and just show up.
