It is not shocking that mail-in ballots would tend to skew somewhat more Democratic than in-person voting, because experience tells us that this is the case, although the gap is closing very fast.
And that is the argument that Democrats are making for the shocking increase in the number of votes for Nithya Raman, and for why Republicans are making a mountain out of a molehill when it comes to Nithya Raman's rapid rise from third place to a now certain second-place finish in the Los Angeles jungle primary.
LA is wild because the election will be between a Cuban trained Marxist guerrilla fighter and a woman running to her left. https://t.co/3mY2gioTtw

Democrats are counting on a repetition of this trivially true fact to justify the most implausible surge post-election day for Nithya Raman, whose campaign collapsed weeks ago after the sole debate. That collapse is not in dispute. Raman went from being seen as a frontrunner to an also-ran because she performed so poorly that Joe Biden could have been proud that he did better than she did.
Ballot harvesting is so corrupt that even third-world dictators find others ways to rig the vote because it’s too obvious.

Yet it’s “legal” in California, a state that can’t count a local election in under a month.
Just insane we put up with this. https://t.co/1rX889MzUw
The thing is, my friends, that the vote counting, or should I say vote manufacturing, does not show a surge in voting by Democrats in the mail-in ballot. It shows a massive surge—in fact, a doubling in some cases— of Nithya Raman's pre-election-day vote percentage, and Nithya Raman is the candidate who needs the votes to knock Spencer Pratt off the ballot. A candidate who was getting around 20% of the vote is suddenly getting 40% of the vote, and those votes are coming at the expense of Spencer Pratt.
Not her Democrat opponent, whose vote percentage has remained steady.
As @BoredElonMusk & the data show, Raman’s late mail in ballot surge was fueled in large part by ballots from Skid Row.

Tens of thousands of homeless whose ballots are sent to central addresses (not the sidewalk) & can be filled out/returned by someone else.
Suspicious… https://t.co/Ch3yVr26WZ pic.twitter.com/lnHXDnQiFq
And where are those votes coming from? Well, the massive vote counts seem suspiciously concentrated in areas where voters have no known address, so the ballots are automatically sent to locations run by the homelessness NGOs that Nithya Raman is deeply involved with.
Mail-ins arriving before Election Day:
— End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) June 7, 2026
🔵 Bass: 38.1%
🔴 Pratt: 27.9%
🔵 Raman: 20%
Mail-ins arriving after Election Day:
🔵 Raman: 37% (+17% surge)
🔵 Bass: 34.9% (-3% drop)
🔴 Pratt: 19% (-9% drop)
Who are we kidding here? This is fraud.
You couldn't even track down those voters because their connection to those addresses is, shall we say, tenuous. So tenuous that it just happens to be where their ballots are mailed, as the actual people, should they even exist, are stoned out of their minds on meth and fentanyl provided by other NGOs. Somebody filled out those ballots, but it strains credulity to believe that the homeless people to whom the ballots were sent en masse did so.
Spencer Pratt is likely going to be overtaken by far left Nithya Raman today. This graph shows the count on Election Day through last night.

North Korean "elections" have more self respect. Even they’d find it absurd for 3rd to suddenly jump to 1st place in every ballot drop DAYS after an election. It’s just ludicrous.
The whole "California elections take so long because they are so secure" meme is, of course, a joke. Forget the fact that the opposite is the case, and simply ask this question: how can some elections be called in less than an hour with total certainty, and others take weeks? Because everybody knows that some elections can be called without counting at all, while others require counting until the correct result can be assured.

But now the eyes of the world are on LA & witnessing what is happening to citizens in California and LA.
We are truly living in a different country here in California, with alternate laws.
It doesn't take a genius to pick apart all the ways that California elections are designed to be as insecure as possible. If a high school held an election with rules like this, the losers could point out all the flaws in 10 minutes; they are so transparently insecure. California hands over unfilled ballots to NGOs, or should I say addresses that NGOs control, with the claim that the NGOs will ensure that the homeless fentanyl addicts will fill them out and return them to...the NGOs, which harvest them.
Something tells me that the actual voting part might not be done by the drug addicts. Who, by the way, don't even have to sign the ballots for them to be counted. A dot or squiggle will do.

California doesn't clean its voter rolls; it provides drivers' licenses to anybody, including illegal aliens, then automatically registers people to vote; you can register online with no driver's license or Social Security number, merely attesting you are eligible; ballots are automatically mailed out to everybody on the registration list, regardless of whether they are alive, living there, or even have a permanent residence.

This is how Democrats stay in power in California
US Attorney Bill Essayli was kicked off the Elections Committee by Democrats for fighting for Voter ID
🚨 He exposed how the State’s website allows ANYONE to receive mail in ballots without a drivers license or social security. You simply check the box, ‘I don’t have one’ and are sent a ballot
“The Democrats in our legislature in Sacramento kicked me off my elections committee for fighting for you, the voters, and speaking up on voter id”
“I'm on the website for the State of California to register to vote on the section where you put in your driver's license, your last four of your social, there's a box underneath each one. It says, I don't have one. I don't have one. And then you're allowed to proceed to go to vote. What is the agenda here? Why do we let people register to vote and we don't verify their immigration status? We need to instill confidence in our elections”
Here’s how Democrats rig elections with those mail in ballots
California moved aggressively toward universal mail-in ballots. Key steps included:
- 2016-2018: Laws like the Voter’s Choice Act expanded vote-by-mail options.
- 2020+ Permanent universal mail-in ballots, every registered voter gets a ballot mailed automatically
Ballot harvesting third parties collecting and delivering ballots was also legalized and expanded
The finishing blow: In 2024 SB 1174 was signed. It locked in the statewide no-ID standard
And that right there is how you permanently rig elections forever
No one can ever beat this voter fraud
We need a federal audit of California elections
Ballots are counted for 30 days. 30 days! It takes India less than a day to count hundreds of millions of paper ballots by hand.
You don't even have to SIGN an absentee ballot. Nobody checks the signature of the "witness," either. It is all on the honor system.
🗳️ Many have been asking me describe the potential signature verification loophole for Los Angeles mail in ballots.

Here, the person drew a happy face & “witnessed” it with a scribble. That scribble isn’t validated as being a real person. No name, nothing.
While a happy face may draw scrutiny, a plain line would not.
This could hypothetically enable mass harvesting where the voter never fills out, signs or even sees their own ballot.
We should be told how many ballots show up without the voter’s signature.
And guess what?! Gavin Newsom just signed a law making it illegal for the federal government to review ballots as a measure of "ballot security." Security from exactly WHAT? Exposure? Every law that gets passed in California reduces transparency and security.
It’s no coincidence that on May 27th Newsom signed SB 73 which restricts access by federal law enforcement to certain election materials https://t.co/lgEQrwWLL2

Add to all this a fact that many have not considered: you don't even need to manufacture ballots after election day. All you need to know is the approximate results beforehand (Raman comes in third), and fill out the harvested ballots from the homeless, apartment buildings, and fake voters, ensuring that the correct result is overturned after the election is held. You have over a week to get them in, so you can even wait until the polls close and initial results come in and still get that vote counted "legally."
I don't know how needs to hear this... but this makes absolutely zero logical sense.

A 3rd place candidate receiving more mail in ballots than the 1st place candidate in the same primary.
It's unheard of. pic.twitter.com/V63mKNc55V
Most of the "cheating" can be done legally, save for the actual filling out of the ballots, which is practically impossible to detect. Simply have the harvested ballots ready to fill out when the initial results come in on election night, vote the ballots, and send them in. No magic USB drives necessary. No video trail. No paper trail. No examination of the ballots.
Time to get election results:
— End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) June 3, 2026
🇧🇷 Brazil: 2 hours (124M ballots)
🇫🇷 France: 4 hours (34M ballots)
🇮🇳 India: 24 hours (640M ballots)
🇩🇪 Germany: 8 hours (51M ballots)
🇦🇷 Argentina: 6 hours (25M ballots)
🇺🇸 California: 37 DAYS (10M ballots)
As far as I can find, which is not admittedly definitive, there is no case where a third-place candidate far back vaults into first place in ballot counts days after the initial results come in. It beggars belief, violates common sense, and depends on the belief that late-breaking voters surged to a candidate everybody knew was rightfully dead and buried. That pattern is never observed in the wild.
This is really pulling the mask off. The previous narrative was "late ballots always lean toward Democrats, it's just demographics"
— PoIiMath (@politicalmath) June 6, 2026
But now we are seeing that late ballots always lean toward the specific Democrat who needs more ballots.
That is not possible. https://t.co/Esm6Eik5ft
But it is the pattern necessary to kick Pratt off the ballot, giving Karen Bass a clear and easy path to victory over a candidate few people like, and nobody is enthusiastic about, and with the charisma of a rock.
Raman is losing her own district (CD 4) and also more people are voting for mayor than for governor. Does that make sense? https://t.co/O5rrmUvVHR

Addendum:
I am not addressing the ballot drop with ZERO Spencer Pratt votes because there is a dispute about whether it was a reporting artifact or was totally real. I just don't know enough, and since it is unnecessary to make my case that the election is rigged, I leave it out. I believe it could easily be true, but perhaps it really has to do with how the Associated Press reported the count, not how the tabulators actually reported the votes.
I am aware of the issue; I just don't want to make poking a hole in this argument too easy if it is proven that this was a mere glitch instead of ironclad proof of voter fraud.
Addendum #2:

Wildest takeaways from my time at the Ballot Processing Center today.
✍🏻 Signatures only need to be 40% accurate (!) this is the setting the machines are set at for LA County (called the ASV)
🗳️ The last two drops disproportionately supported Raman. Are those coming from specific neighborhoods since they’re such an anomaly? Or are the neighborhoods pretty spread out that you count from on a given day? “We’re not sure.”
💌 If you’re unable to sign, you can make a “mark” like a dot or slash instead of signing. A witness then signs below.
I asked them how they verify these signatures. Turns out, they simply don’t.
Well, you must check the witness signatures, right? “No, we don’t.”
So what if I stole a ballot, made a dash by the person’s name, and signed my name? “You shouldn’t do that, but in theory it would be counted,” they said.
How many of these “marked” ballots get in per election? “We don’t know,” they said.
Ripe for fraud, no?
