While this focuses on pressuring voters to support this candidate, there is also the possibility of buying votes. The mail-in voting and vote harvesting rules in California makes this type of fraud possible.

Body camera footage showed voters telling detectives how Khan allegedly pressured them to vote for him and how he allegedly falsified voter registration documents.
