Here we go again

The narrow Election Day vote margins in 2020 coupled with the unprecedented number of people voting by mail because of the pandemic created a massive backlog and left election officials racing to finish the count. Pennsylvania, one of the most hotly contested battleground states, is one of only seven states, including another battleground, Wisconsin, that doesn’t allow pre-canvassing — the act of opening and processing mail ballots ahead of Election Day. In 2020, 27 states allowed pre-canvassing. Since then, 16 more states have passed laws permitting it.

But not Pennsylvania. Despite widespread calls for change, Pennsylvania is likely to again take several days to announce this year’s winner, alarming state election officials who worry the delay will cause confusion, deteriorate trust in the process and make election workers targets for harassment.

This election is going to be stolen for Harris. What else is new?

Hopefully, Trump will be able to flip some "previously unflippable" states like New York, New Jersey, and even Minnesota and handily win the other swing states so the Keystone State won't be a factor either way.

Oregon is up for grabs as well. Same as Virginia.

I knew Virginia was so I figured that was part of the other swing states. I didn't know that Oregon is as well. That's just...WOW! That would be a decent get for Trump if the Beaver State flipped to the GOP.

At this point everything is up for grabs. Remember, while everyone is scared Trump will make a mistake here, Kumswallow hasn’t faced any question at all yet. And the only real government duty she has had was with Bibi and reporting is that was a disaster. Keep calm and rally on.

As my wife joked the other night, the dems had to start over and are busy making new pre filled out ballots with Kamala's name checked.

Is Pennsylvania still allowing mail in ballots and drop boxes?

Florida has mail in ballots, difference is they allow counting of them before election day. WTF these other states after 2020 didn't change their laws is beyond me. I people will say to allow cheating to continue, but there are red states that still don't allow it.

The issue isn't when or when not you start counting them, or even how long it takes to count them. The issue is they're all accounted for - until they find more boxes. No one knows how many votes are still outstanding which allows them to keep printing them. You can start counting them all today, if they find a box of 4000 ballots 5 days after the election convineniently signed not 5 days after the election - & yet not a soul knew about them

# of ballots outstanding s/n be a big mystery w/ today's tech of tracking ballots

They’ve always done mail in for people who are shut ins. I haven’t seen drop off boxes yet.

Philly will never allow an R to win Pennsylvania again.
