BREAKING: New York Judge Rules For Voters In Last Minute Primary Case [View all] Bubzer Apr 2016 OP

I'm no lawyer but RandySF Apr 2016 #1

Not immediately, no. But it means the vote wont be final until affidavit ballots are counted. Bubzer Apr 2016 #3

When they are processed, they will be checked against the elections office records. pnwmom Apr 2016 #25

Did you ignore before reading? northernsouthern Apr 2016 #32

Do you not know what a provisional ballot is? Casting one doesn't mean it will be counted. pnwmom Apr 2016 #36

Yes I do. northernsouthern Apr 2016 #39

If you are involved, you must understand that the judge merely told them to use the provisional pnwmom Apr 2016 #41

The problem is you are making legal rulings in you post... northernsouthern Apr 2016 #47

No, I'm not. I'm saying the judge's ruling was that the voters should use the system pnwmom Apr 2016 #51

OK, then back it up with the link and the line you are reading. northernsouthern Apr 2016 #60

That's the normal way provisional ballots are handled. Where is your evidence that they won't pnwmom Apr 2016 #62

Really? So why were they saying to cast affidavit ballots before the suit was filed? anigbrowl Apr 2016 #42

The affivadit system works for those verifiably in the system. Not for those who've been changed. Bubzer Apr 2016 #44

We have different ideas of huge anigbrowl Apr 2016 #52

I wont bore you with numbers that they're representing now... but I will say it's not insignificant. Bubzer Apr 2016 #57

Huge as in Trump's hands greiner3 Apr 2016 #64

No, this changes nothing about the process. The BoE's will still go back, check their records, pnwmom Apr 2016 #79

how convenient. nt silvershadow Apr 2016 #5

lol saturnsring Apr 2016 #7

OMG saturnsring posted somthing... lol Bubzer Apr 2016 #46

This was a FAIL. The judge merely told them to use the Affidavit ballots that were always available pnwmom Apr 2016 #19

No judge would take it upon themselves to change current law still_one Apr 2016 #37

A slight disagreement with you... anigbrowl Apr 2016 #45

Cynical but true I am afraid still_one Apr 2016 #49

And you got your law degree greiner3 Apr 2016 #66

They filed this knowing full-well that they probably would NOT get an open primary 99th_Monkey Apr 2016 #40

No, it does NOT ensure that the provisional votes will be counted. pnwmom Apr 2016 #59

That's not what i said. What I said is that 99th_Monkey Apr 2016 #74

Then you acknowledge that the ruling changed nothing with regard to provisional ballots. pnwmom Apr 2016 #78

No. 99th_Monkey Apr 2016 #87

They have to defend their general process. Not their separate decisions on each provisional ballot. pnwmom Apr 2016 #88

Of course they need to defend their process. I never said otherwise. n/t 99th_Monkey Apr 2016 #90

I don't see what they've really gained, except in terms of it being a good publicity stunt. pnwmom Apr 2016 #96

You don't see any gain, I do see one. 99th_Monkey Apr 2016 #101

It's a fail for pnwmom because it allows people to vote AllyCat Apr 2016 #100

I carry my card in my wallet. displacedtexan Apr 2016 #76

Good on ya... however it's been the party platform that everyone should be able to vote regardless. Bubzer Apr 2016 #80

I'm sorry, but your story just doesn't ring true to me. displacedtexan Apr 2016 #94
