Why is CA counting election votes so slowly

California counts election votes slowly because state leaders intentionally prioritize voter accessibility and accuracy over speed, coupled with a massive reliance on mail-in ballots. The state's deliberate process is designed to ensure every eligible vote is counted securely, giving election officials up to 30 days to certify the final results. California is one of a handful of states that automatically sends a mail-in ballot to every single one of its 23 million registered voters. Roughly 80% of California voters cast their ballots by mail. This creates an enormous volume of physical paperwork that must be transported, sorted, and manually processed.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/today-explained--6659607/support.Don’t miss our latest episodes! follow us to stay updates with fresh news everyday.
