First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli announced multiple investigations Friday into California\u2019s elections as vote counts for key races continue to face major delays.<\/p>\n

Essayli announced his office will be investigating election integrity in California as a \u201ctop priority\u201d alongside the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Los Angeles, saying the current system is plagued with \u201cserious structural vulnerabilities.\u201d Essayli cited universal vote-by-mail and the lack of voter ID requirements as facilitating potential election fraud, ultimately \u201ceroding public confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both California\u2019s gubernatorial and Los Angeles\u2019 mayoral race are facing ongoing delays several days after Tuesday night\u2019s primary. The vote count for the races has stagnated at roughly 60%, with both elections too close to call.<\/p>\n

This is standard procedure for California elections, with votes often taking several days and even weeks to finalize.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will follow the evidence wherever it leads and prosecute any violations of federal election law to the fullest extent,\u201d Essayli said in a post on X.

<\/p>\n

Essayli also said his office is working in coordination with Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, who will assist in conducting an audit of California\u2019s voter rolls.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe state stonewalled every effort to verify that only eligible U.S. citizens are registered to vote,\u201d Essayli said. \u201cThis case is now before the Ninth Court of Appeal. My office will not look the other way.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will investigate and prosecute. Every legal vote deserves to be counted. Every illegal vote cancels one out.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Election integrity efforts have already been underway at the Department of Justice (DOJ), with Dhillon drawing attention to a major election fraud case in California just weeks earlier.<\/p>\n

In this particular case, a California woman named Brenda Lee Brown Armstrong agreed to a plea deal after being charged with paying people, including homeless individuals on Skid Row, to register to vote.<\/p>\n

\u201cFalse registrations undermine Americans\u2019 faith in elections \u2013 even more so when payoffs are involved,\u201d Dhillon said of the charges. \u201cThis Justice Department is committed to ensuring that all U.S. elections are fair and free from illegal meddling \u2013 so that all Americans can accept the results with confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n
