CNN's Dana Bash tells viewers not to worry about election fraud in California because GOP ballots are 'counted culturally' first

Votes in California's key elections are still being counted with predictions saying the full tally could take over a month to ascertain. President Trump has called out California, saying Democrats are cheating in an attempt to steal the election as Republican Spencer Pratt vies for the second slot for the LA mayoral race general election with Nithya Raman, and Steve Hilton is currently at the top of the count in the gubernatorial race.

CNN's Dana Bash, however, told viewers not to worry because the first ballots counted will be from the GOP electorate, who are more likely to get their ballots in early or vote in person.
