Current California reporting is at 54% of the expected total vote.

Some media outlets and Sanders supporters are reporting 90%, but that figure doesn't represent the total vote. It represents at least partial data received from 90% of reporting areas and obviously doesn't include mail-in ballots, especially since those can be received for another two days and still be counted. Kind of hard to report what they haven't received.

The total vote figure is 54% of expected.

In the 2016 primary, it was more than a month, though changes were made to make it a bit quicker this year. Not enough for some.
