We Can Put a Man on the Moon, but California Can't Count Votes?! | 6/3/26

The Glenn Beck Program

June 3, 2026

Primary elections happened across the country, but some outcomes won’t be known for over a week, as California says it will take 10 days for some vote counts to be finalized. How did we put a man on the moon, but a state can’t count votes in a day with today’s technology?

At first, I didn't think it was real. I woke up to this blinding light, and I was transported to another place, Pluto TV.
Then I heard a voice.

You know it's becoming exhausting, buying food from companies that want your money, but don't want to tell you where anything is made or anything much about it.
You pick up a package, you squint at the label, and somehow you still need a private investigator to figure out what you're actually bringing home for dinner.
It shouldn't be like that. It shouldn't be hard. That's one of the reasons I like Good Ranchers.

Hello America! Welcome to The Glenn Beck Program. Well, the election happened yesterday. There's a few things I need to talk to you about, what it all means, and what the hell is wrong with California? What do you mean we have to wait another 10 days before? What is this? Somalia? I'm sorry, what is this? Minnesota? This is ridiculous, California. Shame on you. You're a joke. You're a joke. We'll get to this here in just a second. Stand by. First, let me tell you about rush tax resolution. One of the worst feelings ever is knowing that there's a problem waiting for you, and not knowing what to do about it. Every day, it's there in the back of your mind. You tell yourself, you'll deal with it tomorrow, you'll deal with it tomorrow, then tomorrow becomes next week, next week becomes next month, and the whole time the problem is getting worse and worse and worse. It's especially true when it comes to tax problems, because the IRS doesn't forget. They don't forgive. If you have unfiled returns, back taxes, penalties, collection notices or other tax issues hanging over your head, the best time to address them is right now. And don't do it alone, believe me. Tax Resolution is your partner. They work with individuals and business owners who are dealing with serious tax problems, helping them understand the options and working towards a resolution. It's an A-plus rated business by the Better Business Bureau. They are the only company that I trust and recommend for this. They offer free IRS transcript investigation, and they'll tell you upfront and for free if they can help. If they can't, they're not going to take any of your money or start anything. They'll do that right away. If they can take your case, you're in good shape. 877-554-7874. 877-554-7874. Go to rushtaxsolutionresolution.com, rushtaxsolution.com. Okay, I want to talk to you about what happened last night.
I want to talk to you about what it means, because the headlines and the lesson are two very different animals.
Six states voted last night, yesterday, and here we are Wednesday morning. This is what I really want to talk to you about. I can tell you who won in Iowa. I can tell you who won in New Mexico. Do they even have electricity in New Mexico? I don't know. Same with South Dakota. I don't know. Montana, New Jersey, the most corrupt. I mean, New Jersey is the state that gave us the Sopranos. They've counted, they've settled. Americans went to bed. People woke up in New Jersey and Santa Fe, and they know. And then there's California.
How many ballots have they counted? About half.
Excuse me, what? About half. Yeah. It's the largest state in the Union. It's the fifth largest economy on planet Earth. And they're telling you, give us a few more days, maybe 10 days. Maybe 10 days. Well, maybe a little more until it's certified. Hold it. What?
