San Francisco's turnout was 79%, not 53%.

SF's incompetent department of elections has yet to count over 120,000 mail in and provisional ballots!

This information comes from today's SF Examiner editorial. I have not been able to locate it online, but it is sitting right in front of me.

1. Umm, if SF has 120,000 uncounted ballots ...

... then Prop 8 will go down to defeat, right?

I don't think this is true. Hope it is, but I am skeptical.

3. No. The prop won by something close to 500,000 votes

6. Make that closer to 400,000 once these votes are counted.

This really pisses me off. 120,000 uncounted very liberal votes could have made a difference in all sorts of races, if only in the perception of the margin of defeat/victory.

How many other votes are still uncounted all across the country?

7. And I bet no one is minding L.A. County.

In CA, election boards have 28 days to count ballots they received on Election Day.

[EFerrari]

5. We'll never know. No one is minding the vote now, they conceded.

We're at the mercy of partisan bureaucrats all over the state.

[TahitiNut]

2. Just another inconvenient fact.

:shrug:

8. My ballot is sitting in a bin somewhere.

:grr:

9. That's good to hear...

...and I'm recommending this as SF took some heat for low reported voter turnout. Unfairly, now it turns out.
