Multiple election fraud investigations in California are currently underway with the FBI and the US Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles, as ballot counting for Tuesday’s primary election continues.
First Assistant US Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli said his office is conducting a “comprehensive audit of California’s voter rolls” with the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division on Friday. His office also has “multiple election fraud investigations underway” in coordination with the FBI.
This comes after Trump sounded the alarm on Thursday, telling reporters in the Oval Office, “You see what’s happening in California. They’re rigging the election.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Republican California gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton also sounded the alarm on Thursday evening, telling Fox’s Laura Ingraham that, according to USPS whistleblowers, California is indiscriminately counting mail-in ballots without verifying the date they were sent. “It’s insane. This election system that they’ve created here is just another monument to their uselessness, another version of high-speed rail,” Hilton said as roughly 4 million ballots remain uncounted in his race.
On Thursday, Democrat Xavier Becerra, former Health and Human Services Secretary for Biden, advanced in the governor’s primary race 48 hours after the polls closed on Thursday evening. Still, Hilton is in first place, leading Democrat Tom Steyer by seven points with 59.7% of expected votes in as of 3:18 pm ET, and his fate remains uncertain with California’s lawless election system.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has been projected to advance to the November runoff in the mayor’s race, where she will face either Spencer Pratt or Nithya Raman. Pratt, after taking an early lead over Democratic Councilwoman Nithya Raman and trailing incumbent Democrat Mayor Karen Bass by a slim margin, is still in second place, leading Raman by six points with 64.3% of expected votes counted as of 3:18 pm ET.

“The most recent mail-in ballots that were processed are favoring Democrats, as many analysts suggested they would. Inside the ballot processing center here in LA County, any ballot that was postmarked by Election Day, Tuesday, must be counted by law,” Fox’s Matt Finn reports from outside LA County’s ballot processing center.
“The process takes so long, in part because each ballot must have its signature verified, and if there’s an issue, there’s a 10-day period to have it cured,” he continued, noting that it’s “very likely” counting will continue into next week.

First Assistant US Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli announced the investigations on X, noting that California’s elections are plagued by “serious structural vulnerabilities.”
Essayli said his office is working with FBI Los Angeles and Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon to ensure that election fraudsters are prosecuted and that only US citizens can vote in the state.

Full statement below:
Protecting the integrity of California’s elections is a top priority for my office.
California’s election system has serious structural vulnerabilities. Universal vote-by-mail with no voter ID requirements creates conditions where fraud can go undetected and unpunished, eroding public confidence.
Without commenting on any specific investigation, my office has multiple election fraud investigations underway in coordination with @FBILosAngeles. We will follow the evidence wherever it leads and prosecute any violations of federal election law to the fullest extent.

My office is also working closely with @AAGDhillon to conduct a comprehensive audit of California’s voter rolls. The state has stonewalled every effort to verify that only eligible U.S. citizens are registered to vote. This case is now before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal.
My office will not look the other way. We will investigate and prosecute. Every legal vote deserves to be counted. Every illegal vote cancels one out.

Harmeet Dhillon also commented, “Teamwork/dreamwork,” questioning why California is opposing a federal audit. “Ask yourselves — why does California (& many other states) hide their voter rolls from the federal government at the same time they gladly hand them over to liberal activist groups?!” she said.
