Its not spread on the internet. its spread by people in CA who have continually watched how illegals are given every right as a citizen. It comes from the fact that CA was called before even the east coast was, i mean why even bother to count votes right? Its from the fact that there are numerous cases of abuse all across the board in CA government. Since they lost our trust how can we believe anything they say. The news lost our trust as well. Its all a massive a joke. From what I have seen I would not be suprised at all if there were 3 million or more votes by illegals, just in CA. The real problem is that there is no way to know for sure, and that right there is the biggest failure of all.

So you're going presume 3 million people illegally voted in California based on what exactly?  What data do you have to arrive at that figure?  Can you provide me with a scenario that even enables 3 million illegal votes?  You do realize that 12 million votes were cast in California and you are claiming that a full 25% were illegal votes.  That's 1 out of every 4 votes.

I would not be suprised in the least. There are no controls for voting in CA. We have very corrupt cities/city councils who rely on votes to stay in power. We have an enormous amount of illegal immigrants. My county voted for Clintion yet i saw not a single clinton sign, i saw no clinton rallies, there were many pro trump signs, i saw many pro trump hats and shirts on customers in my restaurant, there trump events all over the county, but we overwhelming voted for clinton? Yes I question that. Just like I question everything. And with CA so out of sync with the rest of the nation (I mean Clintons popular vote win basically came from CA alone)

 

Have you ever been to CA? Lived in a CA city? experienced the great government of CA?
