BREAKING NEWS 🚨🚨🚨: Bill to limit hand counting of ballots, AB 969 signed into law by Gavin Newsom:
It was drafted in response to Shasta County’s decision back in January to hand count ballots in future elections and cancel its contract with the Dominion Voting Systems (Action News).
The bill, which was approved by two-thirds of lawmakers in both chambers, would only allow hand counts by local election officials under narrow circumstances (Mercury News).
The only exceptions to this law are for regular elections with a maximum of 1,000 eligible registered voters and for a special election with a maximum of 5,000 registered voters.
The Democrat who authored the bill, Assemblymember Gail Pellerin said “Hand counts are complex, imprecise, expensive and resource intensive.”
