I don't think there will be anything goiung on to change the results of the Presidential election though. If Romney ended up winning CA there would be massive investigations.

(9,600 posts)5. I asked since one of my brothers said suddenly his address was changed.
He has lived at the same CA address for the last ten years and voted in every election. Just on a hunch he checked and found out his old address was listed on his voters registration. He got everything corrected now.
But it still seemed strange to him.

2 votes for Obama from our house!
No "voting results" as far as I am aware. Not yet anyway.
The polls look great for Obama, as would be expected, but some heinous propositions, like the anti-union Prop. 32, are too close for comfort.
