It appears that the Democrats cheated in the special election to decide if the state legislature should be allowed to do redistricting, and one sheriff has seized 650,000 ballots to prove it.

State Democrats are furious and demand he stand down.

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco took action after his office received multiple complaints about excess ballots - as many as 45,000 - and so to stop the authorities from "disappearing" them he seized all questionable ballots and will do a count in his own office.

The state attorney general office has moved to stop this count on the grounds the Sheriff's department "lacks expertise".

What expertise? You look at a ballot, you match it to a name, and you're done. It's hardly rocket science.

At any rate sheriff Bianco is a Republican running for governor, so he does have a vested interest. But that will not alter basic arithmetic. The question is does the vote count match the recorded votes?

It's hard to argue with third grade math.
