California counts votes and Trump makes baseless voter fraud claims

Consider This from NPR

With his claims about California voter fraud, President Trump is returning to a familiar playbook. Is this a preview of what the midterms could look like? We are still waiting for some results from last Tuesday's primary in California. That election will determine who is on the ballot this fall in the races for governor, Los Angeles mayor, and key congressional districts. But the state is one of the slowest to count votes in the country, and in the meantime, President Trump is pushing familiar – and false – claims of election fraud.
