I am removing the text including their own California primary and replacing it with including their own California Republican primary as the link lead nowhere and was red tagged If I have made a mistake please swap it back thanks X-mass (talk) 08:00, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
Recommend renaming/moving article to "California Democratic presidential primary, 2016"
editI'm recommending renaming and moving the article to specify the presidential aspect of the primary, as this is one of the few partisan primary races (the other CA races are blanket primaries, with all candidates appearing on all ballots).Mahka42 (talk) 18:05, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
Point of Clarification for CA Primary
editPoint of Clarification The LA Times reports 6/8/16 that as many as 3 million ballots are uncounted statewide[1]. 3 Counties have as may as 950,000[2] These include Vote by Mail Ballots rec'd on Election day and VBMs rec'd up to 3 days post Election day with the correct postage date. There was also a large number of Provisional Ballots cast due to machine breakdown,lack of NPP Democratic Crossover Ballots etc; Provisional Ballots with be counted towards the total if the individual had been registered Democratic or NPP at time they were cast [3].
CA releases un-official results from the date of the Primary; Official results are released approx 1 month later after each County has verified the ballots described above[4].
The number of uncounted VBM and Provisional ballots may not alter the outcome of the Primary, but the percentage differences may narrow.

- You say: "The number of uncounted VBM and Provisional ballots may not alter the outcome of the Primary, but the percentage differences may narrow." "May" is about permission, "might" is about possibilities. At this second, there are 710,471 uncounted ballots in Ca. http://elections.cdn.sos.ca.gov/statewide-elections/2016-primary/unprocessed-ballots-report.pdf , this is more than the difference between the two top vote getters. A correct statement is: 'The number of uncounted VBM and Provisional ballots might or might not alter the outcome of the Primary, mathematically speaking.' GangofOne (talk) 22:53, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
- Data pint. On Election night Pledged delagate counts were Clinton 269, Sanders 206, since then the numbers have changed, even in the last couple hours. Now Clinton 259, Sanders 216. see http://www.thegreenpapers.com/P16/CA-D . Time to update numerous pages and diagrams. GangofOne (talk) 07:08, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
