CA secretary of state has not updated vote results in more than 12 hours.

here's hoping the next announcement will show a big improvement in dems totals across the board.

1. Would they on a Saturday?

I was reading around yesterday, and it was noted that some counties only update their totals twice a week. After seeing that, it was like, ok, maybe I'll stop refreshing the election results webpage forty-five times a day . . .

2. Why don't people just chill out until at least the deadline for receiving ballots has passed?

You cannot have the final results until then by definition anyway. What difference would it make in anyone's life or choices to have incomplete results in the meantime?

6. Seriously

We know what we ate doing here.

7. Advice abounds for anyone posting about this topic

Ignoring the threads is not an option apparently. I agree that we know what we're doing, we know a Dem will win, and we are interested in the process. Apparently that really irritates some people.

8. Indeed

9. It passed yesterday.

But I don’t expect any updates to the count until Monday.

10. No, postmarked by Election Day, received D plus 7. Check the state SOS website.

3. I believe the main updates are made after 5:00 pm local time.

4. I was able to read somewhere that counting will occur "daily"

so it seemed to imply at least that it will happen on weekends. I think you're right about the five o'clock deadline, but if I recall some were released around four pacific time yesterday.

11. Decision DEsk has updated numbers as of 8:00 pm EDT

Candidate..........Votes..........Pct
Xavier Becerra.....1,811,803.....27.03%
Steve Hilton.....1,747,976.....26.08%
Tom Steyer.....1,430,443.....21.34%

Steyer has cut into Hilton's lead for 2nd place, but is still unlikely to overtake him.

12. Thanks!

Saw that there are new results for the LA Mayor Race with the progressive candidate making big gains. She has a good chance of surpassing Pratt.

13. I hadn't checked the LA Mayor race. Just checked now.

I see Pratt is leading Raman by just over 1% and just over 7000 votes. Of course, I have no idea how many votes are still left to count. Hopefully Raman overtakes him. Pratt's unlikely to win in the general election if he makes it, but better to avoid that risk altogether. He'd be an absolute disaster for LA.

5. Results are expected today

from a few counties.
