Penultimate CA vote-count reporting update [View all]
Note to Alerters and Mods: this OP is not intended to be provocative, nor is it intended to fight the last primary over again. It is merely an attempt to put actual facts, so far as they exist, out there for all to see.
As of 6:21 pm on July 1, the actual vote count of the Dem Presidential Primary as between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders stands as follows:
http://vote.sos.ca.gov/returns/president/party/democratic/
Hillary Clinton 2,713,259
Bernie Sanders 2,326,030
Notes:
1. Clinton and Sanders are NOT the only two Dem candidates AND the votes counted since June 7 are being counted for ALL candidates of ALL political parties. I won't give that breakdown. The information can be found at the above link.
2. Clinton has so far surpassed her 2008 Primary performance of 2,608,184.

3. Sanders has so far surpassed Barack Obama's 2008 performance of 2,186,662. (info at Wiki link above)

As of July 1, 6:13, 33/48 counties have
completed their counting, i.e., have "CCC" status:

Bottom line 1: Hillary continues to hold a margin of several hundred thousand votes over Bernie in CA.
Bottom line 2: Although the winning margin percentage has dwindled, the ultimate winner will remain as that announced on June 7, i.e., Hillary Clinton.

I will post a final report after July 8, when in accordance with CA law all vote-counting must stop.
