As of 12 June 2026, the IDF has now killed 73,070 Palestinians in Gaza, including 20,179 children and ~3,700 people in Lebanon, including at least 200 children.

Bonta is right there's no direct evidence that fraud swayed the LA mayor's race. But California's notorious tardiness in counting votes has been almost universally ridiculed and has undermined public trust in elections.
