California's voting system is facing a major crisis as hundreds of thousands of backlogged ballots threaten to undermine the integrity of the electoral process. In response, Governor Gavin Newsom has enlisted the help of former White House advisor Steve Hilton, who is leading a high-stakes effort to clear the backlog by June 11. Hilton's plan relies on mobilizing state workers and "surge teams" to work around the clock to process the massive number of outstanding ballots, with the goal of restoring confidence in California's election system. As the clock ticks down to the deadline, the outcome of this effort will have far-reaching implications for the state's electoral process and the trust of its voters.
