What it will mean for the count"},"content":{"rendered":"<div>\n<p>As plenty of Californians remain undecided about the gubernatorial primary\u2019s unsettled Democratic field, some are waiting to cast their ballots, creating the potential for a slower vote count or a longer wait to find out the winners.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=771\">MAGA still loves Trump. What does that mean for November?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Though the landscape could change quickly if Democrats coalesce around a single candidate within the next several days \u2014 signs of which were emerging this week \u2014 for now, many Democratic-leaning voters appear to be waiting for new developments before making their final decisions, political analysts say.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis has been a roller coaster of a race, and I think voters are waiting to see when the ride is going to end and cast a vote at that time,\u201d said Steve Maviglio, a Democratic strategist.<\/p>\n<p>A larger-than-usual number of people casting mail ballots on or close to election day could extend the ballot-counting process, said Kim Alexander, president of the nonpartisan California Voter Foundation. County election officials said they were prepared for that possibility. Early returns so far haven\u2019t made it clear whether most voters will wait longer than usual to cast ballots.<\/p>\n<p>Mike Sanchez, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles County registrar, said the county was \u201cfully prepared\u201d for the possibility of receiving \u201ca significant number\u201d of ballots returned close to or on election day, June 2. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not uncommon in primary elections, particularly those with a large number of contests and candidates, for some voters to take additional time to review their ballots and hold onto them longer before returning them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Californians who want to vote on or close to election day can vote in person or use a mail-ballot return option that doesn\u2019t rely on the U.S. Postal Service to help speed the process and avoid the risk of a mail ballot arriving late, election officials said.<\/p>\n<p>Hesitation by Democratic-leaning voters reflects the toll of a historically uncertain primary race for governor. The contest has been marked by the unusual lack of a clear Democratic front-runner and the party\u2019s failure to line up behind a single candidate after former <u>U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell dropped out<\/u> in April. <\/p>\n<p>Early concerns within the party that a split Democratic electorate could put two Republicans on the November ballot under the state\u2019s top-two primary system also heightened the sense of stakes among left-leaning voters.<\/p>\n<p>Those factors, combined with a large slate of candidates, voter confusion about how candidates\u2019 platforms differ and a desire to choose the person \u201cmost likely to win\u201d have made Democratic-leaning voters uncertain, said Christian Grose, director of the USC Democracy and Fair Elections Lab.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a little bit of, whoever\u2019s in the lead some Democrats are choosing to vote for \u2026 but people don\u2019t know who that person is,\u201d Grose said, noting that \u201csome of that [could start] to go away\u201d as the race tightens. <\/p>\n<p>An indication that Democrats are starting to consolidate around Xavier Becerra, the former U.S. Health and Human Services secretary, came Tuesday in a new survey released by the California Democratic Party. It showed Becerra with support from 21% of respondents, followed by billionaire Tom Steyer with 15%. <\/p>\n<p>Republican-leaning voters appear to favor Steve Hilton, who had support from 22% of survey respondents. Republican Chad Bianco, the Riverside County sheriff, had 10%. Under California\u2019s primary system, the top two vote-getters advance to the general election, regardless of party.<\/p>\n<p>Tallies from a handful of counties showed varying early turnout so far.<\/p>\n<p>In San Francisco, a relatively small number of ballots have been returned, indicating that voters may be waiting, Michelle Parker, president of the city\u2019s elections commission, said Tuesday. If people vote by mail close to election day \u2014 rather than voting in person or using a drop box \u2014 it could affect the speed of vote-counting, a possibility the city\u2019s election staff is prepared for, she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll see how quickly they come in, but knowing what the news has been like and watching what the dynamic has been like across the state, I\u2019m not surprised people are waiting,\u201d Parker said, referring to the governor\u2019s race.<\/p>\n<p>In San Bernardino County, 5.6% of mail ballots had been returned as of Tuesday, a rate comparable with previous elections, Registrar of Voters Joani Finwall said. Election officials \u201cstrongly encourage\u201d voters to cast ballots early using drop boxes or early voting locations, Finwall said.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=769\">Mayoral candidate Raman unveils rebuilding plan for Pacific Palisades<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In Orange County, by contrast, data so far indicate that voters are not waiting, the Registrar of Voters office said. More than 129,000 vote-by-mail ballots had been returned by the end of the day Monday, more than had been returned by the same time in the 2024 and 2022 primaries. Of those, a slightly higher percentage of Republicans than Democrats had voted.<\/p>\n<p>If a large number of voters were to wait until June 2 to cast a mail ballot, the county would be able to efficiently process them, said Registrar of Voters Bob Page, noting that 90% of the county\u2019s early vote-by-mail ballots were included in election night results in the 2024 presidential primary.<\/p>\n<p>Voters should be prepared for the possibility that the gubernatorial results aren\u2019t determined on election night, Grose said. One candidate could appear to be in the lead on election night and another could overtake them once all ballots are counted. <\/p>\n<p>State election officials <u>warned this month<\/u> that some social media posts urging Democrats to vote \u201clate\u201d could be misinformation. Secretary of State Shirley Weber\u2019s office said it would look into such posts, one of which falsely attributed the message to historian Heather Cox Richardson.<\/p>\n<p>Mail ballots must be postmarked on or before election day and arrive within seven days after the election; otherwise, they are considered late and not counted.<\/p>\n<p>Rusty Hicks, chair of the California Democratic Party, acknowledged chatter around people holding onto their ballots but said the survey released Tuesday indicated voters are \u201cbeginning to move towards specific candidates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even as Becerra and, to a lesser extent, Steyer rose in popularity, other Democrats saw support in the single digits in the poll, including former U.S. Rep. Katie Porter, San Jos\u00e9 Mayor Matt Mahan and former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis race isn\u2019t over; we\u2019ve certainly seen a lot of twists and turns to this point, but you do see some clear consolidation taking place for both Democrats and Republicans,\u201d Hicks said on a call with reporters. \u201cI\u2019m not concerned about California Democrats having their voices heard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Still, the race\u2019s surprises have taken a toll on voters, Grose said: Swalwell\u2019s exit under a cloud of sexual assault allegations, along with a <u>guilty plea to federal corruption charges<\/u> by Becerra\u2019s former longtime advisor, two videos that raised questions about the temperament of Porter and a <u>lack of disclosure by influencers<\/u> being paid to promote Steyer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is some uncertainty among Democrats about, \u2018Is there one more shoe to drop for someone?\u201d Grose said. \u201cThat\u2019s one reason people are holding onto their ballots.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Voters who want to cast ballots later than May 26 should return their mail ballots at a voting site, county election office or drop box, rather than via the Postal Service, by 8 p.m. on June 2 or should vote in person, recommended Alexander, of the California Voter Foundation. <\/p>\n<p>Because mail ballots require election officials to conduct signature verification, they take longer to count than in-person ballots. In addition, recent changes at the U.S. Postal Service have <u>slowed mail service<\/u>, creating a higher potential for mailed ballots to arrive late.<\/p>\n<p>Alexander also urged voters to take advantage of Saturday in-person voting, available at county election offices statewide the weekend before election day, and other early voting options.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am very sympathetic with voters who want to take their time to make their decision in this very fluid election,\u201d she said. \u201cThe important thing is to have a plan.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/california-relocation-journal.com\/?p=767\">To sell a home in this California city, it must be climate friendly<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the top two candidates in the primary advancing, many Democratic-leaning voters appear to be waiting for a clear leader to emerge, political analysts say.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":772,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-773","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Democrats may cast last-minute ballots for governor.
