Mail-in ballots are pouring in by the millions to election offices across the country, getting stacked and prepared for processing.

But before the count comes the signature test. latimes.com/california/sto…
Election workers eyeball voter signatures on ballots one by one, comparing the loop of an “L” or the squiggle of an “S” against other samples of that person’s writing. Image
In an election marked by uncertainty, the signature verification process represents one of the biggest unknowns: whether a system riddled with vulnerabilities will work on such a massive scale. Image

On July 9, 2015, 33-year-old Subash Tamang and 3 Nepali coworkers hired a taxi outside the Saudia Arabian power plant where they lived and worked, headed for a service where they could send money home.

What happened next ended Subash’s life...temporarily.
latimes.com/world-nation/s…
The taxi collided with a tractor trailer, killing three of the men instantly. Subash and the driver, 25-year-old Tejendra Bhandari, were airlifted to a hospital where one died. The other remained in a coma for months.

Weeks after the crash, Subash’s wife received a body in Nepal and cremated it in accordance with Buddhist customs.

But in September, back in Saudi Arabia, the surviving crash victim woke up only remembering one thing: his name was Subash Tamang.

A woman who appeared in the new "Borat" film said she felt "kind of betrayed by it.”😳😬

We'll explain the latest controversy it has caused ⬇️⬇️⬇️ latimes.com/entertainment-…
A babysitter who appears in the film revealed on social media that she was not aware that the movie was a comedy.

Jeanise Jones, a mother of three, was told that Borat's daughter was being groomed to be Mike Pence’s mistress.
latimes.com/entertainment-…
“Yes it was me in the Borat movie,” Jones wrote on social media. “I was recruited to be in a ‘Documentary’. At ABSOLUTELY NO time did I know this was a satirical comedy movie and that I was being ‘setup’ so to speak.”

Los Angeles is now tied with New York for the city with the most multiple titles in a year.

latimes.com/projects/los-a…
Since 1903, 10 cities in the United States have had their clubs win multiple titles. This includes teams from seven major leagues (NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, MLS, WNBA, NWSL).
Out of the 24 years in which a city has won multiple championships, 18 of them involve a Major League Baseball team. Until now, Los Angeles was an exception.

The Los Angeles City Council is moving with unusual speed to a Wednesday vote that would impact unhoused people of the city latimes.com/homeless-housi…
The vote is to consider revisions to the city’s anti-camping law that would allow authorities to remove homeless camps anywhere in the city if they first offer shelter as an alternative to living on the street. latimes.com/homeless-housi…
The proposed change in the law would effectively prohibit anyone from camping in public anywhere in the city if authorities offer shelter as an alternative.
