Welcome to the postelection vote-count slog in California, where tight races are often impossible to call even when the initial results seem clear-cut. @grace_2e @Hannahnfry latimes.com/california/story…

California voters want to know who won elections. The wait can be 'frustrating, even annoying'

Can the governor of California freeze insurance rates? Xavier Becerra has said he would if elected. Today, all but one of the candidates running for California Insurance Commissioner said no, it's not legal. One said it would be an interesting case study.
