UH OH.
Former Fox News journo Adam Housley is reporting that he received two different mail-in ballots ahead of the Super Tuesday primary in a few week. How widespread is this???
Congrats California you have sent me two ballots. One as a non party preference, which I’ve been for 20 years and one as a Libertarian…which I have never registered. Neither one has many choices other than new taxes. Being honest and ripping one up. Makes me wonder tho pic.twitter.com/6QDS0zPX2V

A quick glance at his replies shows others have experienced the same thing:
I also got two. When I called the Elections office they said they were getting lots of calls about that. Mine was because I switched parties, but still…

A friend of mine recently got two with two variations of her name. Made me wonder as well.

And California is still mailing out ballots to people who have moved out of state:
I moved to Texas in 2012 & changed my license but still have a home in CA. I still get mail in ballots to vote in CA. If I wasn’t an honest person I could easily vote in both.

Others are reporting one ballot but their party preference was changed:
Saw a tweet from someone in CA they had changed her party registration without her requesting it. She was warning everyone to check their registration.

I didn’t get two ballots but my party preference was changed from Republican to No Preference.

2 million ballots have already been returned:
Super Tuesday is still more than a week away, but almost 2 million ballots have already been cast — including in delegate-rich California and Texas. https://t.co/bCoN4MYemD

So, how many of those were duplicates? As California took a month to count all the votes this time, just get ready for the chaos now. Great job, Dems. It’s like Iowa, but 12 times bigger!
