WOKE VOTING: Maybe CA’s extreme voting system–maximize participation, damn the delay and fraud potential–is another Peak Woke phenomenon that will now be moderated as common sense reasserts itself. https://t.co/FjiJb76aNY

Re: Scott Pelley/ @CBS–I’ve been on staff at magazines when an editor you like is replaced by an outsider you distrust. I’ve never thrown a fit like Pelley did. That’s just not what you do. You make the new person feel at home and then stab them in the back as soon as you can.

No. If you didn’t have universal mail-in voting you wouldn’t create so much opportunity for fraud and you would’t need all the time-consuming checks. https://t.co/RQYgAOK52v

On the subjectivity problem: I remember the recent petition to recall woke LA DA George Gascon, which was kept off the ballot when the registrar’s office–headed by Dean Logan, whom Republicans trust not at all–disqualified a large number of signatures. https://t.co/qcSMIH32g5 https://t.co/Q5ng7gDK2e

Of course, even if you have universal mail-in voting you don’t have to give the ballots 7-days to get to the counting centers. That’s California (ie California Democrats who run the state) opting for the Deluxe Delay model. You could (like Florida) say if mail ballots don’t

Most of California’s wild counting delays are the product of universal mail balloting. If you don’t have mail-in ballots you don’t need to check signatures after Election Day, and you don’t need to try to “cure” the ballots that fail a signature check, etc..

Even with late-arriving mail-in ballots counting, as long as they’re postmarked election day, I don’t quite see how it takes *10* days to count 95% of the vote. Is the mail that slow? Most mail arrives easily within 3 days, no? By day 7 it should be just a trickle. https://t.co/MOmHV25l83
