Early voter turnout is exceeding expectations in California’s Nov. 4 special election over redrawing the state’s congressional districts, a Democratic-led effort to counter Republican attempts to keep Congress under GOP control.
“We’re seeing some pretty extraordinary numbers of early votes that have already been cast, people sending back in their ballots,” Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a livestream with former President Obama on Wednesday.
More than 3.4 million mail ballots have been returned as of Wednesday, with votes from Democrats outpacing ballots from Republicans and Californians registered as not having a party preference, according to a ballot tracker run by Democratic strategist Paul Mitchell. Mitchell is deeply involved in the Democratic effort, and drafted the proposed congressional districts on the Nov. 4 special election ballot.
… but don’t let any good news or bad news stop you from voting if you haven’t yet!
Not just in California. Every state has elections now. Make sure to vote. Non-federal election years have significantly lower turnout than most. It doesn’t take many votes to swing a municipal election. Get out there.
100% on this feeling.
Could be republicans bussing in illegals. So make sure you vote.
