- US attorney opens investigations into California's elections, sends prosecutor to LA vote center
The U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles opened multiple election fraud investigations and sent a prosecutor to the county's vote-counting center. This follows President Donald Trump's baseless claims of mass fraud in California's election, where late-tallied Democratic-leaning mail ballots were reducing his preferred candidates' leads. Trump's Justice Department has previously sent observers to monitor California's elections, and his favored gubernatorial candidate called for changes to mail ballot laws.
