I can’t speak for the other states, but I know that under Pennsylvania law they can’t even START counting mail-in ballots until after the polls close at 8:00PM. That’s not a bad thing, IMHO.

In Pennsylvania, am I allowed to drop off a ballot for another voter?

Loved this bit...

...Enforcing Pennsylvania’s law is another matter...“In terms of its enforcement, there’s really, you know, very little ability to enforce something like somebody putting a ballot in the mail,” Boockvar said. “People have been mailing letters for each other forever.”...

“I know that under Pennsylvania law they can’t even START counting mail-in ballots until after the polls close”

When did RATs start observing laws?

I guess I don’t understand the reasons behind waiting until the polls close before the counting begins. This isn’t the 1800’s where the population was less dense.

I understand not wanting to not post results but those E machines are tabulating as votes are cast.

I know there are Freepers old enough to remember watching election night results when they were posting vote totals on chalk boards

County elections offices should start
certifying and counting hand ballots and mail ins at 8 am on election day.

Just my opinion
