Doesn’t work that way in California. The early mail in vote is BY FAR the most Democrat.
The later mail in vote and the Election Day vote on those “evil” “rigged” machines are the most Republican.
It’s been that way for a while in California.
That no court will stop them for illegal activity.

I was up early this morning to vote in person at my local "accessible voting location."
The friendly poll workers went around showing how all the ballot boxes were empty and all the touch-screen machines were set at zero and the computers sealed with labels and zip ties.
At the sign-in table, there was an oath (that the machine would speak out loud for you in several languages) that you understood that voting more than once, or voting for someone else, etc. was a felony punishable by law.
There was a stack of cards with phone numbers to call to report suspected vote fraud.
In spite of all of this, I felt uneasy. What a great show of election integrity. Who were they trying to impress? The shadow of November 2020 still lies dark and cold over these cheerful little proceedings.
I noted the abundance of touch-screen machines and only two little booths for paper ballot voting (paper ballots were printed upon request).
The paper ballot was four cards and seven pages long. I double checked my choices before exiting the booth. One of the volunteers made a snide remark about the time I was taking. There were only a few people stopping by at that hour of the morning, mostly (from what I could see) to drop off their completed "mail in" ballot.
After I deposited my ballots in the ballot box, a volunteer at the table asked if I wanted an "I Voted" sticker, and I said yes. She offered it, with friendliness but not warmth or enthusiasm. I sensed a bit of reluctance in her.
I felt like putting scare quotes around the "I Voted" on the sticker. "I 'Voted.'"
Did I really vote? Would my vote be counted at all?
