Supreme court decisions really shouldn't end up as party line ones so often like they do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decisions will be know before they are sent, which means you can only imagine what will be sent. tgo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titans279 Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 The game plan is to limit counting early votes and to not allow counting of votes to take too long. Hilariously transparent tgo, and Btowner 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to imply the issue lies with the district Court overreaching and changing WI election law so close to the election. Honestly why the fuck are people waiting to mail in ballots any way? Just Google the law in your state and make sure you mail your ballot on time. Or better yet get your ass to a polling site. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Democrats keep having their votes thrown out due to not signing the ballot envelope as instructed or not mailing the ballot on time, then they’re just idiots. If they had voted to extend the deadline, then it would be not only over-ruling state law but also the state supreme court ruling I believe. There’s a moral argument that a vote cast before the election ends should be counted of course, but I’m no legal scholar and am unsure exactly how they should be reasoning when it comes to presidential election law in specific states. On its face, it seems like voters should follow their state’s laws as long as disenfranchisement isn’t a factor.

If the WI legislature passes a law saying ballots have to be received on or before election day then that's the law. If the PA legislature passes a law saying ballots received up to 9 days after the election are valid then thats the law.
