California Vote Counting Chaos, Ali Velshi Attacks America 250, & New Platner Allegations | Last Call
About this episode
Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch.
This week they discuss California’s chaotic election process, MSNOW's Ali Velshi complaining that he can't celebrate America's 250th birthday because we're such a racist country, troubling new allegations against Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner, and a bizarre twist in Alaska’s Senate race.
First, Jim and Greg complain about California's inefficent vote counting. We are still waiting for results in the governor's race involving Xavier Becerra, Steve Hilton, and Tom Steyer, and the Los Angeles mayor's primary with Karen Bass, Spencer Pratt, and Nithya Raman. They also discuss disappointing results in other contests.
Next, they react to MSNOW host Ali Velshi bemoaning how tough it is to celebrate 250 years since the Declaration of Independence because of what he considers our terribly racist history and our supposed mistreatment of women and minorities today.
Then, they sift through the most recent allegations against Graham Platner from multiple former girlfriends, who describe what they call "reckless and unsettling" behavior. The accusations include aggressively grabbing women, forcing one woman's arm behind her back, and preventing her from leaving a room. But Democrats still support him.
Finally, they focus on Alaska, where Sen. Dan Sullivan may have to share the ballot with another candidate named Dan Sullivan in the August primary. Is it a legitimate campaign or an attempt to create voter confusion? Greg and Jim also rip Alaska's convoluted voting system.
