Nonpartisan Watchdog Group Questions 2022 Election Count

On June 28, 2024 Election Integrity Project®California (EIPCa) obtained from the office of the Secretary of State a list of who voted in California’s November 8, 2022 general election. California’s Election Code §2191 provides qualified groups the right to obtain from elections officials a list of each person who voted in previous elections.

The list contained each voter’s name, address, birthdate, state Registration ID number, voting method and current registration status (active, inactive, pending, cancelled, etc.) Each Registration ID number in VoteCal is unique, and not duplicated.

The list should have been an exact match to the list California certified on December 16, 2022.

It was not!

EIPCa analyzed the Secretary’s list and found:

• The number of statewide November 8, 2022 votes provided in the list is 43,624 more votes than certified by the Secretary.
• 21,355 voters had two or three votes credited to their respective Registration ID numbers.
• If these multi-votes are removed, there were still 22,210 more voters listed than number of votes certified.
• Analyzing the list by county…
  • Only one county (Modoc) matched the certified county-level results.
  • 32 counties had more votes than certified. Los Angeles County had the bulk of the list’s excess votes and multi-voting.
  • 25 counties had fewer votes than the number certified. It is unclear who cast the “missing” certified votes, as the list contains all who voted in the election even if they were subsequently inactivated or cancelled.

“Election results produced through any process that bends or breaks the “rules” deny all legal voters their voice.” (In re Coy) 127 U.S. 731 (1888)

“EIPCa calls for Secretary of State Weber to perform a full and final reconciliation of the votes counted compared to eligible voters who voted and to develop a ‘who voted’ list as mandated by EC §2191 prior to certification of each future election, starting with the November, 2024 Presidential election.” said EIPCa President Linda Paine.
