Video Overview & Insights
Elon Musk early on Monday boosted unsubstantiated claims questioning the results of the primary elections in California, focusing specifically on the Los Angeles Mayoral primary, as the progressive Democratic candidate Nithya Raman overtook Republican Spencer Pratt's vote count, putting her on track to join incumbent mayor Karen Bass in a runoff.
Whatās sad is the that everyone knows the fix is in, even the Dems are laughing about it. Nothing will happen and they know it.

āBaselesslyā. Youāre kidding right? Hilton read some of the election rules this week. Including the ability for a āvoterā to hand write the date they are voting negating any type of post mark. Itās called Election DAY for a reason. Not Election WEEK. Not Election MONTH. DAY! Statistically, the late votes would closely mirror the on-time votes, right? But in the case of the Socialist, she accumulated 40% vs 20% for Pratt. She even pulled more votes % wise than Bass on the late votes. This stinks worse than 3 day old fish left in the sun. Look - even if there is a āperceptionā of fraud in an election process, it needs to be fixed. But the Dems are fine with the Cali election process. That should tell you a lot. Even Brazil gets their 140 million votes counted in a day. You CANNOT have votes dribbling in after the election day for several days, no handwriting the dates. The votes should be present by the Closing time on Election DAY to be counted - all others get trashed.

Yeah almost every vote came in democrat for mail in and 2-3 days after the election. And most of those votes were for the 3rd place candidate. Nothing to see here haha. Even libs arent this dumb and clueless. Obvious fraud. Bring the federal lawsuit and open the voter rolls
@Dontbotherme20000Garbage
@morganlacy3662āUnsubstantiatedā š
@morganlacy3662When the polls closed Bass was 40% then as mail in ballots can in and she was called into the general election. Her votes were switched to Raman to cut out Pratt.
@evermor-o8tIll bet rahmam stops promoting herself
@guyvannatta7905This reporting is such a biased left leaning propaganda slant that itās just sad. Taking a page out of Trumpās playbook? Pratt has been intentionally, focusing on non-partisan issues. Come on, do better.
@PaidToBeYouForbes do better!
@mytoobishNow unsubstantiated? This is a joke. Right?
@vallogan3881Baselessly? Are you kidding me? This is obviously a far left post, smh
@vallogan3881Bias Forbes report is hilarious! It's obvious that Ramen never had a high polling prior to the election...her numbers, 27% does not match...
@jamesborst8155š¢ orange š maga š¢
@CA-jt2tfThe whole California system is BROKEN
@tonyvalle794Mail in notice + California = cheating
@tomfinn6579This is why everyone thinks forbes is a jokešš¤”
@mtmadigan82Gaslighting us much? No one believe news media anymore, so save your breathe buddy!
@TheHoth1In November LA voters will have a choice to have a leg amputated above the knee of below the knee, which is no choice at all, good luck on all that.
@anthonybessette1102Why are there not riots in California and especially L.A. for Democrats stealing another election
@SpacemanpezYour video is pure šš©
@sonofthebigguyenemyofcornp4403Musk is a multi billionaire. He didn't become one being stupid. I'll take his viewpoint over any bought and paid for media stooge .
@gallesteI love how the claims are unsubstantiatedā¦.lol. When it is clear to see that California has manipulated their laws in order to make certain hat democrats secure every singleās election. Even while dirty tactical are used. Unsubstantiated though right?
One day soon we the people will be able to bring down massive class action lawsuits against the gaslighting media and their government handlers. The NgOs that surround them. Make America rich again.
These people are posing as democrats to have access to federal funding in which they launder!
@soundhaus6404Deeply blue city but extra ballots over the days seemed to only favor the democrat candidate that needed it and not the other democrat candidate? Suuuure. Nothing to see here. Move along
@RebekahEdvaldsVoter fraud
@dwsohmMail in voting and ballot harvesting should be illegal. Between early voting,in person voting,and absentee ballots there is no excuse for this sloppy system,unless you are the incumbent party and wanna cheat. Demand in person voting with proper ID and only allow absentee ballots for those in military, traveling abroad, or in a homebound or otherwise medically necessary state.
@ciphercode2298Mail in votes should be banned. There is an obvious reason why Democrats embrace it rather than voting in person on Election Day.
@smileyslick1534yeah, paying homeless people a whopping $2 to get votes will do it š¤¦š»āāļøš«
@Matt_VilHow about you investigate before you say unsubstantiated claims. There are numerous people in skid row saying they were paid to vote for Karen Bass. Do your job!
@Justin-ds5iyFORBES EQUALS GLOBALIST RINOš
@mikewolfson2285Corrupt. Who wants to continue living the way we have been?
@elizabethsalvage4338the math aint mathing ššš
@mls4701Election Day in California ultimately comes down to having a week to find votes to overcome a given number i.e. - Election Day is over and now we have an official number to overcome ! But letās be real,finding fraud is going to be extremely difficult at best and they know this! So whatever the public thinks doesnāt matter..thereās no evidence! I liken it to sitting down and watching a highly professional master magician ply his trade. You know itās not real and you know itās a trick but damn if you can figure out how they did it!!!
@WilliamWarren-g5jNo wonder so many people have left their already, such a beautiful state ruined š®
@PapacoalminerBlatant fraud right in your face
@annieshi5166No guy, not a baseless claim, there has already been proven fraudulent activity in this election. Donāt spread false information, youāre part of the problem. There is fraud happening, the election needs to be cancelled
@HubbaBub7039This how the democrats cheat and have been doing it for years with every election. They will always go this if allowed
@Vinny-d5eWell , it should be very easy for competent lawyers to gather proof and take it to the courts right? Just like Trumps lawyers proved the election was stolen. Right?
@IVy-f3x5gWhy even have a general election? The party machine already won
@justincanter8037Crooked Dems
@elirodriguez6471Pratt bankrupted himself in 2012 because he believed a Mayan prediction that the world was going to end (in 2012). What a dufus
@Goldenhour24Its fraud and is gross the media is try to cover it up
@MrRsbot21the media is complicit
@johnedwards4981Foreigners like Elon and Rupert Murdock shouldn't be allowed to have such influence over American media.
@RhythmiconsRepublicans lose any race and they immediately scream the Dems must be cheating. Itās amazing how pathetic it is.
