When do we expect to start getting results?

Polls close at 8PM Pacific, 11 PM Eastern. Results should start coming in by quarter after, but if there’s a tight race, it could be weeks (gdi, California).

[President Johnson]

Will Newsom get over 50% in the primary? I'd guess he ends up around 54%.

I’m almost certain that he’ll break 50% here

Do we expect same-day vote or mail-in vote to be counted first?

Mail-in is almost always last.

Mail-in is almost always last.

I noticed mail-in for Orange County was first.

[Duke of York]

Im surprised Lanhee Chen has the most votes right now in the primary. Does he have a chance to pull off an upset in November?

The combined vote total for all of the Democrats in that race at the moment is 63%. Fat no.

[Sir Mohamed]

Don't need to tell you who I voted for

Would make up for the Democrats fumbling and getting locked out of AD-38 last cycle.

Seems like this is the final number?

If so, Newsom slightly overperformed Jerry Brown in 2014, the first election with the jungle primary and the only other one so far with a Democratic governor running for reelection.

There won't be a final number for weeks.

[Canis]

In some more positive news for progressives all 7 (2 were incumbents) of the candidates endorsed by NNU because they said they would vote for AB1400 (calcare) if reintroduced made it to the general!
Alex Lee (AD 24)
Pilar Schiavo (AD 40)
Wendy Carrillo (AD 52)
Isaac Bryan (AD 55)
Georgette Gomez (AD 80)
Dave Jones (SD
Aisha Wahab (SD 10)

Yup, CA has always been embarrassingly slow on that. That said, I don't expect that much movement in final percentages.

[Minnesota Mike]

As of yesterday morning, before any late absentees, Newsom was at 56.3% of the vote, Dems in total 58.28%. Two party Gov vote was Dem 62.79% Rep 37.21%.

[wbrocks67]

There is going to be about 3M more ballots to count in CA, damn.
