California’s Slow Vote Count Explained | Sacramento News
Description
President Trump called the delay in California’s election results “wild,” but the truth is, it’s all by design. With a massive voter base and heavy reliance on vote-by-mail, California counts ballots postmarked by Election Day — even those arriving days later — and rigorously verifies every signature. The 30-day canvass period, mandated by law, ensures accuracy and inclusivity, while an additional eight days for state certification bring the total to 38 days — July 10th in this case. It’s not a glitch — it’s a deliberate, secure process built for a state that takes democracy seriously.
