54. When is the deadline for the release of his full second year?
Mon Sep 17, 2012, 01:11 PM
Sep 2012

Romney is already taking a hit for not meeting the minimum legal requirements. He's not entitled to security briefings until he's cleared, which ain't exactly informing his foreign policy expertise right now.

But now I'm interested in whether or not Romney can make it all the way to Election Day without releasing the rest of his returns. Would electors even be permitted to cast a vote for him if he fails to meet the minimum requirements? Can he turn in his returns after the election but before the Electoral College assembles?

Because if he can, he'll do that.
