20) Trump’s election defeats in California: Trump falsely claimed, “If we had Jesus Christ come down and count the votes, I would have won California.”
Clearly not. California’s votes are counted accurately, and it’s a Democratic-dominated state in which Trump has lost by massive margins in all three of his races – by 30 percentage points in 2016 (more than 4 million votes), 29 points in 2020 (more than 5 million votes), and 20 points in 2024 (more than 3 million votes).
21) Ballots in California: Trump falsely claimed of California, “They send out 38 million votes. Nobody knows where they’re going.” Both assertions are incorrect.
California, which sends a mail-in ballot to all active registered voters, had about 22.6 million voters registered as of about two weeks prior to the last presidential election and about 23.1 million voters registered as of early April 2026; there is no basis for any suggestion that some 15 million excess ballots were distributed in any election, nor that elections offices don’t know where they are being sent.
