Never forget that South County Libocrat fools voted for more tax and spend (+ grift) nonsense.
Imbeciles, the lot of you.
Right, I’m sure everything is on the up and up. Could it be all those 3000 uncounted votes were from Republicans and independents?
There is no excuse for this. When Julie Rodewald ran the shop we had results the same day. Shame on California and Slo County for this idiocy.
They’ll keep counting until they get the results they want.
Shame on us….
at last count SLO County, with 0.07% of the state’s population (that’s less than one-tenth of one percent for those of you in Rio Linda) accounted for 35% of uncounted ballots statewide, something like 3,500 out of 13,000.
Somethings fishy, in the 2024 statewide election only 0.77% of the votes were not counted due to signatures and late delivery. Statistics don’t usually lie.
