I don't care about the Royal Family, but the Kate Middleton (Princess of Wale) story is wild: - In high school, she and her sister (Pippa) were called the "Wisteria Sisters" for being shameless social climbers.   - She got into a relatively prestigious college (Edinburgh) and then switched to a less prestigious school (St. Andrews) after it was announced that Prince William would be attending. - She delayed starting by a year to be in the same class as William, and then changed her major to Art History to match his.  - She dumped her boyfriend after being told that Prince William said she was "hot." - Her mom gave William an ultimatum that he needed to propose, which Kate then helped plan.  Mission accomplished.

Updated Nov. 8, 4:30 p.m.

Polls are closed in California. Elections officials are beginning to process and count millions of mail-in ballots from California’s General Election.

The Secretary of State’s Office website shows an estimated 10,728,985 ballots had been counted by Friday at 4:30 p.m.

Every registered California voter was sent a mail-in ballot. The process offers greater convenience for voters, but also delays results because election staff must spend more time verifying signatures and handling late-arriving ballots.

Leading up to the election, statewide ballot returns were slightly lower compared to the 2020 General Election. On Monday, roughly 42% of ballots had been returned; in 2020, that number was closer to 49%, according to election firm Political Data, Inc.

County election officials have until Dec. 5 to process and count ballots. The Secretary of State will certify the results of the election on Dec. 13.

This page will be updated as results come in. See full California election results here. 

Presidential race

Vice President Kamala Harris won California’s 54 electoral college votes, according to a call by the Associated Press. (California’s electoral college lost one member after the 2020 census.) Harris’s projected win was called immediately after polls closed, far from a surprise in California. 

U.S. Senate

Democratic Representative Adam Schiff has won the race to fill the U.S. Senate seat held for decades by the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein, according to a call made by the Associated Press shortly after polls closed. He had 57.6% of the preliminary results on Friday afternoon. 

Republican challenger (and former Los Angeles Dodgers baseball star) Steve Garvey had 42.4% of early results Friday afternoon.

A special election to fill the remainder of Feinstein’s senate term also appeared on the ballot this election. The seat is currently held by Sen. Laphonza Butler, who was appointed as a caretaker by Governor Gavin Newsom shortly after Feinstein’s death. 

Schiff was also announced as the winner of this race, per the Associated Press.
