Data-quirk fuels unfounded claims of LA mayoral fraud

A viral claim that LA’s mayoral vote tallies showed massive fraud stemmed from a timing glitch in the AP data feed: two updates were issued within a minute, first adding votes for Bass and Raman and then for Pratt. County officials confirmed there was no batch with zero Pratt votes, and experts described it as a reporting artifact rather than fraud, underscoring how quickly data-speed can mislead without careful verification.

Adam Gray Secures Victory in California's Final House Race

Democrat Adam Gray has declared victory in the race for California's Congressional District 13, leading Republican incumbent John Duarte by 187 votes. Despite Gray's announcement, Duarte has not conceded, and the election results have yet to be certified by the Secretary of State's Office, which has 10 days to do so. This close race mirrors their previous contest two years ago, and if the results hold, it would represent a significant seat flip for Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Democrat Riggs Gains Narrow Lead in NC Supreme Court Race

Democratic incumbent Allison Riggs has taken a narrow 24-vote lead over Republican Jefferson Griffin in the race for a North Carolina Supreme Court seat, with over 5.5 million votes cast. Griffin initially led by 10,100 votes on election night, but absentee and provisional ballots have shifted the lead to Riggs. The race remains unresolved as several counties continue to process ballots, and a recount may be requested once all votes are counted. The outcome could impact the current 5-2 Republican majority on the court.
