| I'll have a much larger roundup later. But it looks to me like there was a significant undervote in the election. So far, 10.04 million votes have been counted in the Presidential race. Yet on Prop. 8 we have about 9.9 million votes counted. The difference there is 79,000 votes. But that's the smallest discrepancy. Most of the other statewide ballot measures had undervotes of around 600,000-800,000 votes. And there are maybe 1 million votes yet to be counted, so this spread could be much higher.
And if you look at the Congressional and state legislature ballots, the spread is just as high.
A lot of people stopped at the top, probably because they didn't have enough information and didn't feel comfortable about voting. |
