"Bonta wrote that "the Sheriff's misguided investigation threatens to sow distrust and jeopardize public confidence" in upcoming elections, calling it an abuse of the criminal process."
"Bianco has described his probe as a "fact-finding mission" to determine if votes were fraudulently counted, accusing Bonta of interfering with a lawful investigation."
""Well, well, well, the political corruption in California just gets bigger and bigger," Bianco said in a social media video, questioning Bonta's motives for stopping the count."
"Bianco stated, "Why in the world would Rob Bonta want that count stopped unless he was afraid of what that count would uncover?""
California Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta filed a petition to halt Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco's investigation into alleged election fraud. Bonta claims the investigation undermines public confidence in elections and is an abuse of the criminal process. Bianco, a Republican gubernatorial candidate, seized over 650,000 ballots for review based on claims from a citizens group alleging inflated vote counts. Local election officials have rejected these claims, while Bianco defends his actions as a lawful investigation into potential fraud.
