Voting data specialist Paul Mitchell said he expected people to avoid the polls in California on Tuesday because of the Associated Press Monday announcement that Hillary Clinton had secured enough support to become the presumptive nominee .
Political observers had largely predicted that Democrats contested presidential race would spur more Democrats to vote Tuesday ...
California's voter rolls grew by almost 650,000 in the final six weeks of registration. Three of every four new voters were Democrats.
But with AP's announcement, voters will be bombarded with news that the race has been called for Clinton, Mitchell said.
Its all going to be built upon the concept that the race is over, he said. This is going to pop the balloon of what was potentially an extremely high poll voter turnout.
