"most votes in presidential election history"

Expand full comment

Interesting fact: immediately following the November election, the CA state SoS released "official" results. Total vote counts exceeded 90% of the state population. US Census estimates showed more than 30% of the state population are not US citizens, a legal requirement in CA to register to vote. Those numbers also happened to show a > 99% voter turnout (registered voters vs votes received). With just over 30 million votes cast in a state with 33 million people (as estimated by the census). Certain dissidents with math skills pointed out the unlikely nature of these numbers in some public forum. If you go to the SoS web pages today, you will find different numbers, with the total votes cast less revised down around 20 million and turnout more plausibly in line with history and logic. This is revisionism of official, legal documentation.

Also feeding the conspiracy theory that the elections were not legit is the fact that Orange County is shown as voting Biden. Anyone familiar with California political history will realize why this raises suspicions...OC is as "red" as any district in CA has ever been ;-).

Wish you had a screen shot before CA SOS revised.

The “final, official” 2020 # votes counted in CA exceeds the number of voters who supposedly voted by about 123,000. Most of the “error” is mail ballots. SOS won’t answer why.

I think I have the XLS I downloaded with the counts by district, somewhere. If I put it up publicly I'm sure the Google censors will remove it as misinformation ;-).

I did an analysis comparing census data with vote counts in 6 states where results were under challenge. I found in 3 that the vote counts exceeded the adult population. In two others, including CA, the count was under the total adult population but not by much (implausibly close IMO). I forgot to include "adult" in the above which is important. Even the revised counts are showing unbelievably (IMO) high participation rates considering that credible sources (US immigration who issues visas and permanent residency) indicate nearly a third of the states population are non-citizens (excluding "undocumented" residents in that estimate). Thus even 80% of the adult population in vote counts indicates a problem. The SoS and AG have admitted that the number of registered voters is higher than is legally possible. County registrars are responsible for auditing registrations. The state legislature passed a law a while back that requires the DMV submit voter registration for everyone who applies for a DL or ID card. The DMV is also prohibited by law from asking citizenship status. There is an opt out box on the form (tiny and easy to miss). County registrars are supposed to audit registrations, but many have admitted they lack the means (in fairness there isn't much they can do). While it remains illegal to register to vote if you are not a US citizen here in CA, it seems quite likely many folks unknowingly violated this law thanks to the automatic DMV mandate. With the decision to send an absentee ballot to every registered voter does seem to assure many people who are not legally eligible to vote are in possession of a ballot. Additionally, most of the registered voters have the option to vote in person. Again, law is you only vote once, but since ballots are anonymous, the possibility of multiple votes from the same voter (again possibly without their knowledge) seems quite high. Add all these things up and you have IMO sufficient cause to raise questions.

A good friend (and lawyer) pointed out that all the above is irrelevant. The outcome of elections in CA is predictable and has been for decades. He notes that we have zero visibility into ballots after we submit them. We haven't for decades, if ever. So why start whining about it now? Also a fair point...

Expand full comment

So if you've been robbed for years, it becomes okay? It doesn't matter how many decades this crap has has been going on, imo, it doesn't mean we have no right to "whine" much less do something about it.

Also, I didn't just start "whining" about being disenfranchised by election fraud. Its been a constant issue for me since my first election in 2000, and didn't change just because the elites are now fixing elections blue instead of red. As I told my blue relatives who opposed our rigged elections right up until they allowed them to "stop Trump", I care about fair elections, not about "winning" against Republicans or Trump, and I don't pretend I don't see the rigging based on election outcome. Of course, they're confused and aghast that I've been "siding with the Republicans" since 2016 and the advent of the Russia collusion hoax, and can't imagine how someone as progressive as me (actual progressive--Democrats are not progressives) could possibly be such a "Trump supporter". Because hypocrisy knows no party and tribalism always wins over basic honesty and fair play in most people's heads.

Beware. The new colors can shift again when the powers that be need a change in narrative. As long as they can arbitrarily decide who's at how much "risk" (and from what), they retain the option to keep reapplying mandates of any kind they want. And they also keep people constantly off-balance, always wondering what's coming next, always waiting for permissions, always acquiescing to the state of subjugation.

Those Jews who survived the concentration camps said that their inconsistency was the worst thing about the Nazis. One minute they would be decent, almost friendly, and the next moment capable of incredible brutality. Everyone was kept in a state of perpetual anxiety, confusion and terror, and were consequently far easier to control.

Expand full comment

I read the "methodology" of the new formula. There are two (2) data inputs (only). Vaccination rates (estimates not measured reliably) and % of hospital beds available. Some of the "red" counties in CA for example have no hospitals, so get automatically "red" because the empty beds would be zero. I'll leave it to the biologists here to point out the flaw in the first metric ;-).

Anyone who continues to believe any official pronouncements by any govt. entity on anything is just absolutely certifiable. The contempt they have for us is unquantifiable. I really thought I'd seen the height of idiocy with the ones who worked for Trump (whose biggest lie was "I hire the best people") but it's been "hold my beer" all the way down.

But as I've been telling a friend of mine for awhile now, what's going to happen is anyone with minimal brains will start sending their kids to more conservative even though less prestigious colleges, and the midwest will, over a generation, become the source of practical brainpower. I don't know if we'll be around to see it but there will certainly be a shift in society as a generation of gender and class studies morons become completely unemployable as enrollment in such institutions withers. Right? I mean, we gotta have hope...

Story from a friend: his kid showed up at school wearing a tee shirt with Kermit the Frog and the caption "green lives matter". The kid was accused by school officials as being "racist" and ordered to take off the shirt. Having no other shirt at school, she said no noting the school dress code requires shirt and shoes. THE SCHOOL CALLED THE COPS. The cops (wisely) escorted her home instead of taking her to jail. When asked how the other kids reacted, the girl responded "they laughed". Father sent a letter to the school and school board pointing out that Kermit is a fictional frog, a different species (not race), and so the schools assertions were wrong, the shirt was specious, not racist. :-)

The father in question reports he has instructed his daughter she may not wear to school any garments that are dominantly white.

What was the change they made? Been trying to see what metric or condition changed - it’s getting stupid, don’t let them get away with hiding bodies like this

Expand full comment

They changed from measuring cases to hospitalizations.

Expand full comment

not exactly. Changed so that there are only 2 metrics: vaccination rate (a guess) and available hospital beds. They describe the second as "% beds filled" by COVID related cases, but spot checking I found that counties with no hospitals get 100% occupancy (zero empty beds) which makes them red.

It's super simple and almost perfectly meaningless.

Expand full comment

Wow that's even worse than just hospitalizations! I remember the breathless articles in early 2020: FOUR WASHINGTON STATE COUNTIES HAVE NO REMAINING ICU BEDS! Normal ICU capacity of those four counties: 0.

What I would really love is to retroactively apply this standard to the last two years and see how the maps differ from the 'expert' advice actually given.

Expand full comment

I recently read (Dr. Marty Makary perhaps?) that as some hospitals either weren't busy enough and/or lost staff, they reduced the number of "available" beds. So perhaps they actually had 100 beds but only the staff to cover 40 of them. Conveniently, those 60 unused beds ceased to exist in the official count.

Expand full comment

We see this in Washington state. They actually stopped reporting the number of available beds. This was the first of many articles highlighting how they lie with numbers.

As a resident of a county that's still in the CDC's "high-risk" area even on the revised version, and has also been, as a whole, roundly ignoring everything the CDC says all winter long, as well as for the past year or more, I can confirm: there are no dead bodies on the street, and the hospitals are still functioning exactly as usual. I'm sure you're all completely shocked at this news. :)

Yes, same experience in hinterlands of Florida. Despite daily contact with the public, in the past two years I have caught exactly two respiratory diseases, both minor colds by symptoms. March 1, 2020 and (more or less) mid-Feb. 2022. Latest didn't even produce any chest issues, but curiously has hung on three weeks as a minor sore throat...? To the best of my knowledge, I never had anything remotely resembling Covid-19 symptoms. Despite the majority of my co-workers getting a dose in late 2021.

Brandon is a PharMa CCP puppet used to continue to terrorize the good citizens of the USA. So the CDC made some changes. Those who are afraid will remain afraid and compliant while the rest of will try to get on with rebuilding out of the rubble he has wrought. If he wanted to do anything patriotic, he could have apologized to those whose lives he’s destroyed with his mandates and order all worthless mandates rescinded with people to be hired back with payment of lost wages. No, he is a destroyer, little has changed except some meaninglessness map for Bill Gates and Buffet to laugh about.

I noticed this too. Another interesting pattern: when I zoomed into California on the new CDC risk map, I noticed a familiar pattern. I compared it with the official results of the presidential general election last November per the state SoS website. Not perfect correlation, but if we toss out a few "outliers", it clearly lines up: districts that voted Trump are the "high risk" covid districts today according to the new formula. I made a side by side graphic, but I guess I can't share it here. Maybe this link works: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15j63FBlwaj8RWNqdPRrIGk2FkA_LqCzv/view?usp=sharing
