2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAt least 1.6 million, possibly 2.4 million of the remainin democrat votes still to be counted in CA.
66% of the 5 million votes on June 7th were democrat (3.5 to 1.5 mil). There are 2.4 unprocessed votes with more being reported (8.9 million in total, that's 4 million potentially or 1.6 million unaccounted for), both democrat or republican. With that you have about 2.4 - 4 million times 0.66 = 1.6 - 2.4 million democrat votes to be processed.
From the Secretary of State website as of Friday at 3:21pm Clinton has received 188k votes to Sanders 151k, even though Bernie flipped three counties, including Santa Barbara:http://vote.sos.ca.gov/returns/maps/president/party/democratic/

All ballots are counted regardless of the margin
I don't know how other states do it, but this is how California does it

(1,306 posts)And the LA Times, The Independent, and the numerous reports that say otherwise. After all the time I put into the post you're quite rude. California has 17.7 million registered voters and according to you, the 5 million already counted is the final total. That's a 28.2% turnout. What are you talking about?

(92,422 posts)all the ballots wouldn't get counted, as long as they were registered to vote, submitted the ballots within the correct time frame, and didn't try to vote twice
Also, the LA Times NEVER said the votes would not be counted
How is this, you are rude for calling me rude

(42,769 posts)Is probably closer to 1.3 million than to 1.6 - 2.4 million.
That's because we know that of the 2.4 million unprocessed ballots, a significant number (possibly around 40 percent) will have been cast in the republican, libertarian, green, peace and freedom, and American independent primaries or cast in the democratic primary by voters who did not make a selection in the presidential primary, or were cast by NPP voters who did not elect to vote in one of the presidential primaries. And we know that some portion of the unprocessed ballots will be deemed invalid.
