There's no "algorithms" at play here. The early returns were mostly from small, rural counties in eastern California which were inclined to vote Republican and for Garvey. Most of those counties have most of their tallies in. The urban, mainstream voting coastal counties are still 50% or less counted, even now. And in some counties, Alameda, Santa Clara, San Francisco notably, Barbara Lee and Katie Porter, in addition to Schiff are way ahead of Garvey in votes counted

Can you explain how Garveys vote number went from 1.8 million to 900 thousand?

If they were still counting, shouldn’t ALL totals still be increasing?

The same thing happens in Louisiana.

You have some of reddest of red parishes finish uploading votes to the SOS before 9 pm because they may have 30-50 precincts or voting machines to process, while blue parishes like Orleans and Caddo are still uploading votes at 11 pm because of the hundreds of precincts and voting machines to process.

This never makes sense to me. I thought rural things were slow and methodical, whereas the city folks were much more efficient .

Don't give me its a numbers game, because cities have more people that can count, thus the ratios of voters to counters will still be roughly the same
