Ballot harvesting is merely manufacturing votes on an as-needed basis

California's elections have been a disaster since the state Legislature passed and Governor Jerry Brown signed a bill authorizing ballot harvesting in 2017. This legislation was just in time for the 2018 election, where California's congressional Republicans lost 7 seats – all thanks to ballot harvesting after Election Day.

Additionally, California has allowed more than 800,000 inactive voter registrations to remain inactive and on the rolls for at least three elections — with 151,202 on the rolls after at least four consecutive elections, a new federal lawsuit states.

We've also just watched in disbelief as Los Angeles Councilwoman Nithya Raman pulled ahead of Spencer Pratt in the LA Mayor's race by a magical swing of 43,000 votes, AFTER Primary Election Day. After giving a tear-filled concession speech Election night, somehow Raman gets a ballot dump of 43,000 votes?

After the first results were in, Mayor Karen Bass eventually increased her vote total by 98%, Spencer Pratt by increased his by 78%, while Raman's vote totals increased by 190%!

Did other races – the race for Governor – increase this much? Becerra? Steyer?

LA attorney Elizabeth Barcohana posted this shocker: "Skid Row's turnout increased 150% from our last Mayoral Election."
