- Description
- President Donald Trump claimed Thursday, without evidence, that the slow pace of the count from Tuesday’s California primary was a sign of Democratic “rigging the election.” Several key races in the state have not been called, and California has long had a reputation for being slow to report the results. This is, in part, because a significant number of the total votes come in as mail ballots that are dropped off Election Day, according to the California Voter Foundation, a nonprofit organization that seeks to improve the election process.
Earlier Friday, First Assistant US Attorney Bill Essayli — a Trump appointee who leads the Los Angeles-based US Attorney’s office — said his office had “multiple election fraud investigations underway” in a social media post that bashed California’s election system.

General Rezaei's comments shed light on the thinking inside Iran's strategic decision-making circles. He shot down the possibility of a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, and also said that any potential US-Iran peace deal hinges on the Trump administration agreeing to release $24 billion in frozen Iranian assets.
