Spencer Pratt voters are reporting that their ballots have been rejected.
This is from an independent journalist in San Diego named Amy Reichert: "Multiple Spencer Pratt voters have contacted me saying their signatures were rejected and their ballots were not counted. Here is the letter they get.
“More than 200,000 Californians have had their ballots rejected since 2020. This is what happens when you don’t require voter ID. If a machine can identify your party registration, people have every right to question whether the process can be manipulated."
This is from a man who lives in Southern California named Russ. He said, "Today I received a letter, just like my neighbor did, informing me that my California ballot was not counted because my ‘signature verification’ supposedly didn't match the state's records. I've been voting in California for 20 years."
Leftists are engaging in a series of talking points to defend the California election system. They say things like, “Well, you need to sign the ballots, so there will be signature verification” or “We check those signatures” or “It has to be postmarked by Election Day” or “Ballot harvesters have to put their signature on the ballot envelope, so it's not done anonymously. There's still a chain of custody for these ballots.”
They're saying these things to try to instill confidence in voters, when none of us have any confidence in the California election system. Each and every one of their talking points is contradicted by the actual election procedure and the laws on the books that guide Los Angeles elections.
So they say “You need to sign it.” OK, but does a smiley face count? Oh, it counts.
And they say, “We checked these signatures.” OK, do you check them on any ballots other than Republican ballots? Because there have been reports of Los Angeles election workers telling journalists, “Actually, we don't really check these ballots.” So do you or don't you?
The mail-in ballots that come in late, the left says, “They have to be postmarked by Election Day. These are not people that are casting ballots after Election Day tallies have been made public.”
Actually, you don't need a postmark.
If you look at California election law, you don't have to have a postmark by Election Day. You can simply handwrite any date that is either on or before Election Day, and the ballot is counted.
What happens to the ballots that have been ballot-harvested and are turned in to be counted if the ballot harvester doesn't put his or her name on that ballot? Is that ballot rejected?
Oh, no, it's not rejected. That ballot is still counted, even if the ballot harvester doesn't sign the ballot envelope.
So all of these talking points that are thrown at us by the left are…lies.
