So

Either a corrupt political machine zapped just enough votes to get the petition below the threshold.

Or election integrity is important and we should take appropriate measures to ensure this.

BREAKING: The effort to recall L.A. DA @GeorgeGascon has FAILED to qualify for the ballot. The Registrar-Recorders office announced only 520,050 of the 715k+ signatures it collected were valid. It needed 566,857. Details below. @FoxNews pic.twitter.com/uoEo473QBO

Doesn't surprise me. I'm becoming more and more convinced that politicians are installed instead of elected.

It is too bad the Democrats do not use these stringent requirements for the right to vote.

Soros lost his DA in SFO. He will not allow another one to go down.

Great news. Hopefully he will double down on the soros playbook. Lessons need to be learned hard, and remembered by generations. Otherwise these leftists back off and then take more ground in a couple of elections in the future because people don't really see the full consequences of their voting.

Who didn't see this coming after observers were banned from the process?

The folks collecting signatures have been at it for a long time.
I signed the petition at Home Depot in NoHo probably 6-9 months ago.

And after all that, they came up just a few signatures short.
I guess this is why for the recall Newsom petition they got about 2x the number of signatures needed.

Do they not verify identities when signing up and then follow it up with a solid # count all the way through?

Country is screwed. This is Maduro type stuff.

Honest question....

Do Latinos ever learn? Look at mexico. Next door to the greatest country to grace this planet for 250 years and yet a **** hole in perpetuity. LA is majority Hispanic.

Think of all the disenfranchised people! They should let illegal immigrants sign too

US and mexico, apples to oranges.

Crime rates will hit the point where people are going to vote for change. nyc, san fransico, milwaukie etc learned (temporarily). Overall though, no one learns for more than a generation or two, before history repeating itself.

So in Los Angles they just disqualified almost 30% of ballot signatures BUT they expect you to believe that LESS THAN 1% of Ballots were faulty in the 2020 Presidential Election!

Oh sure, now election integrity matters to the leftists...

Gascon recall petition fails after signature audit.

It is not how many people signed the petition, it is about who counted the signatures.


PSSST: The counters wanted Gascon to win.

And yet you never see votes thrown out. If fact you see the opposite when needed. Seems to be a pattern of things always breaking the same way every time.

First no recall on Newsome

Now no recall on Gascon

California deserves to be a ****hole.

Friendly reminder that 110% of registered voters in LA County cast ballots in the 2020 election.

That county is *****

No there was a recall on Gruesome, but the idiot libs voted to keep him in.

Nope. They just ask you if you're a registered voter in Los Angeles County.
Then, you sign the petition and put your name and address.

Honestly, I can't believe they checked any of it.
I didn't have to show ID to vote.
I only had to show ID to register to vote.

And a discrepancy on address could be something like a situation I had with my address.

Years ago, I lived in Apartment #20 at a certain street address.
After I bought my house, they somehow took my new address and added Apartment #20 to it.
They didn't really care that my address was wrong and let me vote either way.
But, since my address was technically wrong and I was signing to verify that everything was correct, I disputed it and had to vote provisionally in 2020.
When I voted in the Gubernatorial recall and in the primaries, my address now shows correctly in the voting system.

tldr; - It could be common to have the wrong address or have a mistake in your address

Didn't they keep observers from watching the signature audit?

There was a bunch of shady crap that went on with the recall election and he stayed in power.

Two voter integrity groups say holes in some absentee ballot envelopes designed to help low-vision Californians cast their ballots have the potential to reveal whether anyone has voted in next month's recall election. Voted "yes" to remove Governor Gavin Newsom.

The election integrity monitoring group, the Amistad Project and the American Voters Coalition, say they have identified at least three counties, including Los Angeles and San Diego counties, where absentee ballot envelopes have a "window" showing voters' recall preference. .

There are stories and photos all over, where you can see people stealing these ballots.

Police in Torrance, California, announced on Monday that multiple agencies are investigating how and why hundreds of stolen vote-by-mail ballots for the upcoming gubernatorial recall election ended up in a parked car.

As Lenin and Stalin both stated, "it is not who votes that matter, but, who counts the votes".

The county clerk is an elected official in one of the most liberal counties in the country. I'm sure they worked hard to invalidate that list.

California and LA brought this on themselves. No hope. Innocent people will continue to be hurt.

Short term is san fran and them recalling that marxist pos DA. But that's what we want to avoid, because it doesn't change their thinking.

Longer term is Texas since ann richards lost. Really before she was elected, Clayton Williams completely blew that election with his last minute open mike gaff. No statewide dems since then.

But it's all cyclical, that's human nature.

It's not about logic. It's about being anti-gringo.

Democrats don't even care that people know they are cheating.

It's a sham(e) what has happened to California. Such a beautiful state with a lot to do. Sucks that it's been run into the ground by the crazy liberals.
