Democrats Need To Sue To Have The Millions Of Ballots Stuck In The Mail Counted

[DanieRains]

Millions of people voted by mail and sent in their ballot long before the election. DeJoy just sabotaged the mail so they wouldn't get counted. We need a ruling that any ballot sent 3 days before the election gets counted no matter how lot it sat in some post office waiting to move.

1. What evidence exists

to support a claim of “millions” of ballots?

[dchill]

2. At least it's something that can be determined.

[Codeine]

4. I totally agree with that,

I just think it’s a bit silly to make outlandish claims about millions of ballots being held up in the mail. There’s no way.

10. Billions! Trillions!

5. Good question - I thought it was a few hundred thousand at most.

USPS processed 150,000 ballots after Election Day, jeopardizing thousands of votes
The number of mailed ballots not delivered by Nov. 3 is expected to grow as more postal data is released in the coming days.

This story was updated Friday, Nov. 5, and includes a correction.*

More than 150,000 ballots were caught in U.S. Postal Service processing facilities Wednesday and not delivered by Election Day, agency data shows, including more than 12,000 in five of the states that have yet to be called for either President Trump or Democratic challenger, Joe Biden.

Another 39,000 ballots were processed Thursday, agency data shows, including more than 4,000, in the remaining swing states of Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

Despite assurances from Postal Service leaders that agency officials were conducting daily sweeps for misplaced ballots, the mail service acknowledged in court filings that thousands of ballots had not been processed in time, and that more ballots were processed Wednesday than on Election Day.

The number of mailed ballots not delivered by Election Day is expected to grow as more postal data is released in the coming days. Some election experts worry such delays could run up against even more generous ballot acceptance windows that some states have granted.

9. This is tRump's America...who needs evidence?

[roamer65]

3. I agree.

Any ballot in possession of the USPS should be counted.

[StarryNite]

11. Absolutely

6. MiamiDade -- I think that Trump stole DEM ballots. There, I said it. That should

be reason enough to investigate.

7. There never were millions of ballots sitting in the USPS, nor the 300 K some folks were

bandying around. If anyone has any proof of that and it's confirmed, some local USPS postal workers need to be disciplined.

States do need to change their laws to allow ballots postmarked in time to still be counted. Or, maybe voters ought to wise up and not send the ballots in on Nov 1, Nov 2, or Nov 3.

12. yep.

avoided saying it myself, but ....
the latter. jeez, people! anybody that hadn't been living in a missile silo for the last 6 months -- might have clued to the fact that this year ......

so -- thanks for getting it off my chest! --- ---

13. Last minute people drive me nuts.

Don’t disenfranchise yourself out of sheer laziness.

[Hoyt]

14. Excellent way to put it.

[stopdiggin]

8. one more thing where the states make the rules.

Some states have made provision to "stretch" the time frame for receipt of mail-in ballots. Some have not. Likewise, some have specific rules on postmark dating. Some do not. I think it is unlikely that the courts will want to step in to supersede those state election laws -- particularly as the situation with the delays in USPS delivery was well know, and well in advance of the actual election.

In other words -- It is what it is. And your state decides whether that ballot counts or not.

17. In my rube state, I got my ballot about Sept 25th. It had to be in my 7:00 PM Nov 3.

So, you just make a mental note that your deadline to put it in the box say by October 25 if using the mail. I got it in earlier, and used a county drop box.

But, if I had not been able to get out and had no one to help me get to a local blue box, I'd stick it in my mailbox and put the little red flag up. Then, in a week I'd check on line to make sure it had been received.

I don't think most Democrats are as stupid as some people think.

[stopdiggin]

18. again. yep.

Mail in voting might have been something new to a lot of people this election (PA as an example). But, again. Jeez, folks. If you're all fired up about participation -- put a little damned effort into it!
