Let not over do it Gary, there were little more than 10MM votes counted in California.

Are you saying half could be fraud?

Let's try to be little more realistic,
I would say not even 50,000 votes are fraud in Calif.
If it is, we need to change the system.

Ok let's double that number to 100,000.
And that's about 1% of the total votes in Calif.
And that's less than 0.1% of total vote of 116MM.

Now compare that to 55 EC vote out of 538, that is whopping 10%.

Are you going to say "Butt, butt, still 100,000 is a bigger number than 55, so I am sure it is more important to block 100,000 illegal vote than blocking 55 illegal electoral vote, duh..."
