总统质疑洛杉矶市长选举结果
- 美国众议院议长加入特朗普，嘲讽计票速度
- 对加州的批评，加剧了越来越多未经证实的选举欺诈指控
洛杉矶，6月8日（路透社）——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周一再次声称加州选举存在舞弊，在没有证据的情况下质疑选民投票结果，结果显示他在洛杉矶市长选举中支持的共和党候选人似乎即将落败。
特朗普对加州选举制度以及他所称的民主党掌控的加州计票耗时过长的抨击，是他长期以来所称的选举对他和其他共和党人舞弊的叙事的最新转折。

在周日播出的美国全国广播公司《与媒体见面》节目采访中，特朗普在主持人克里斯汀·韦尔克质疑他未经证实的言论后愤然离场。特朗普称加州选举官员存在舞弊，因为数天后“仍远未”敲定最终计票结果。
周一，特朗普对选举结果提出质疑，结果显示他支持的前真人秀明星、共和党人斯宾塞·普拉特在洛杉矶市长选举中跌至第三名，落后于两名民主党人——现任市长凯伦·巴斯和市议员尼蒂亚·拉曼，此时距离投票结束已过去六天。
“斯宾塞·普拉特在洛杉矶决选中落败是不可能的，他此前还大幅领先，”特朗普写道。“选举舞弊！”
加州官员反驳称，该州的选举制度有着严格的保障措施，包括对投票设备的测试、对选票保管链的严格管控以及对所有签名的验证。
特朗普还提及了加州州长选举，他支持的该选举共和党候选人、电视评论员史蒂夫·希尔顿在初选中落后于两名民主党人——前内阁部长哈维尔·贝塞拉和亿万富翁环保活动家汤姆·施泰尔。
“现在他们会为这位很棒的家伙史蒂夫·希尔顿做手脚，”特朗普写道，似乎在暗示民主党人正在操纵初选计票，将希尔顿排除在最终的决胜选举之外。
根据加州的“开放初选”制度，所有公职候选人将在同一张初选选票上竞争——而非民主党和共和党各自分开的选票——初选中得票最高的两名候选人将进入11月的最终决胜选举。
巴斯在14名市长候选人中明显领跑，截至周一，她获得了近35%的已统计选票。拉曼最初排名第三，周日超过普拉特升至第二，周一仍以27.12%的已统计选票保持第二名。
普拉特目前以26.69%的得票率位居第三，他周一在社交媒体上坚称，自己仍有机会跻身11月的决选。
“各位，我们的得票差距只有不到一个百分点，”他在X平台上写道。“仍有数十万张选票尚未统计，洛杉矶官员给了我们三周时间来计票！”
周日，普拉特暗示“自周二以来超过4.3万张选票的净波动”来自无家可归者的投票。他提及该市最近的年度无家可归人口统计，显示洛杉矶任何一晚都有超过4.3万名无家可归者，普拉特写道：“4.3万，嗯？我之前在哪里见过这个数字……可能没什么。”
“计票将持续数周”
美国众议院共和党议长迈克·约翰逊也发表了自己的看法，对加州选举的公正性表示怀疑。
“他们在选举结束后还要计票数周，”他说。当被问及是否有选举舞弊的证据时，约翰逊回答：“其中一些手段极其阴险，而且由来已久，根本无法证实。”
共和党对加州选举制度的批评，是建立在特朗普反复声称2020年白宫竞选被窃取的虚假言论之上的。
白宫内部人士和其他知情人士表示，反复提及2020年的选举欺诈指控，是特朗普为新的投票限制政策辩护、并在11月将决定国会控制权的选举前动员其支持者的策略。
多名选举专家表示，通过将2020年选举描述为非法，特朗普也在为挑战共和党失利、以及如果民主党重新掌权就破坏其合法性铺平道路。
加州漫长的计票过程主要源于旨在提高选民参与度的邮寄投票制度，而特朗普长期以来一直称该制度容易滋生欺诈。
近年来加州的大部分选票都是通过邮寄方式投放的，以选举日为邮戳日期的选票可在之后一周内被接收，这增加了选票验证、处理和统计所需的时间。因此，仍主要进行现场投票的州能够更快敲定最终结果。

Trump steps up attacks on California’s election system

Summary
President disputes outcome of Los Angeles mayoral race
- US House speaker joins Trump in ridiculing pace of vote count
- California critique adds to mounting, unproven vote fraud claims
LOS ANGELES, June 8 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday repeated claims that California’s elections are rigged, disputing without evidence voter tallies showing the Republican candidate he endorsed in the Los Angeles mayor’s race appeared headed for defeat.
Trump’s attack on California’s election system and what he called the excessive amount of time it takes the Democratic-controlled state to count votes was the latest twist in his long-running narrative of elections being rigged against him and other Republicans.

In an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that aired on Sunday, Trump stormed out of an interview after the host, Kristen Welker, challenged his unproven assertions that California election officials were cheating because after several days they “aren’t even close” to finalizing the results.
On Monday, Trump questioned election returns showing Republican Spencer Pratt, the former reality TV star he backed in the Los Angeles mayor’s race, falling into third place behind two Democrats – incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and City Council member Nithya Raman – six days after polls closed.
“Not possible for Spencer Pratt to have lost the L.A. runoffs after the big lead he had,” Trump wrote. “Rigged Elections!”
California officials have countered that the state’s election system is subject to rigorous safeguards that include testing of voting equipment, strict controls on the chain of custody of ballots and verification of all signatures.
Trump also pointed to the California governor’s race, where the Republican he endorsed for that election, TV commentator Steve Hilton, was trailing two Democrats in the primary – former cabinet secretary Xavier Becerra and billionaire environmental activist Tom Steyer.
“Now they’ll be working on great guy Steve Hilton,” Trump wrote, seeming to suggest that Democrats were manipulating the primary vote count to exclude Hilton from the final contest.
Under California’s “open primary” system, all candidates for elective office compete on a single primary ballot – rather than on separate ballots for Democrats and Republicans – and the top two vote-getters in the primary advance to a general runoff election in November.
Bass emerged as the clear frontrunner among the 14 mayoral candidates, commanding nearly 35% of the votes counted as of Monday. Raman, who started out in third place, edged past Pratt for the No. 2 spot on Sunday and remained ahead of him in second place on Monday with 27.12% of the votes tallied.
Pratt, still trailing at No. 3 with 26.69% of the vote, insisted on social media on Monday that he still had a chance to clinch a spot in the November runoff.
“Folks, we’re dealing with a fraction of a percentage point difference,” he wrote on X. “There’s still hundreds of thousands of votes outstanding, and LA officials have given us the next three weeks to count!”
On Sunday, Pratt suggested that a “net swing of more than 43,000 votes since Tuesday” came from ballots cast by homeless people. Referring to a recent annual count of the city’s unhoused population documenting more than 43,000 individuals experiencing homelessness on any given night in Los Angeles, Pratt wrote: “43,000, huh? Where have I seen that number before …? Probably nothing.”
‘COUNTING VOTES FOR WEEKS’
The Republican Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, weighed in with comments of his own, doubting the integrity of California’s elections.
“They are counting votes for weeks after the election,” he said. Asked for evidence of rigged elections, Johnson replied, “Some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream it is impossible to prove.”
Republican criticism of California’s election system builds on Trump’s persistent repetition of false claims that his 2020 White House bid was stolen from him.
White House insiders and others familiar with the matter have said that harping on 2020 assertions of election fraud points to Trump’s strategy of justifying new voting restrictions and energizing his base ahead of November elections that will determine control of Congress.
By casting the 2020 election as illegitimate, Trump is also laying the groundwork to challenge Republican losses and undermine Democrats if they win back power, multiple election experts have said.
California’s prolonged ballot-counting process stems largely from a mail-in voting system designed to increase voter participation, which Trump has long said is prone to fraud.
The bulk of California votes in recent elections have been cast by mail, with ballots postmarked by election day accepted up to a week afterward, adding to the time it takes for them to be validated, processed and tabulated. States where voting is still conducted largely in person are thus able to finalize results more quickly.
