The California legislature voted last Friday to end manual counts of votes, ending any sort transparency in what they ironically refer to as "democracy" in the golden state.
Shasta County, a smaller rural area in northern California, ended its contract with the dark lords of electronic vote tabulation, those who media companies dare not name.
The dark lords settled a defamation claim with Fox News for $787 million, due to the network's reports that its machines were not secure and played a roll in Donald Trump losing the 2020 election.
There are some indications that Fox's settlement included taking Tucker Carlson off the air.
After all that, the small conservative county opted to just count their votes by hand like the good old days, when cheating required more work like physically stuffing ballot boxes.
But the Democrats in Sacramento were having none of it. The last thing they want is some hick in a rural town questioning why John Smith voted for Gavin Newsom 16 times.
A machine will count all the votes, regardless of signature discrepancies and other signs of election fraud, so it's no wonder the Democrat legislature voted that all ballots must be machine counted, short of a natural disaster or not having enough wind and solar to keep power running in the state.
Oddly enough the chances of either in California are about 50/50 these days.
Shasta County Board of Supervisors chair Patrick Henry Jones said Friday the county would sue to block the bill should Newsom sign it. He said state officials "cannot guarantee that these machines haven't been manipulated."
"The state is now attempting to block us from being able to have a free and fair election without any outside influence," he said.
Careful, Patrick, that's how the dark lords came for Fox News.
Besides, Assemblywoman Gail Pellerin said,
...the argument that voting systems are easily hacked "is a fallacy."
"It is illegal for any part of a voting system to be connected to the internet at any time, and no part of the voting system is permitted to receive or transmit wireless communications or wireless data transfers."
Nevermind any evidence to the contrary.
Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be much that can be done for California, as the Democrats continue to make a mockery of their namesake, eroding democratic ideals in the pursuit of power.
