McSally by 17,000 votes. Not sure when AZ has to certify by law.

I've looked but can't find it on any Arizona website. Even the Sec State website. But Michele Reagan is AG. A Republican.

It’s 2018 and third world sh*tholes have a better voting system than America. This is by design by local and the federal government along with political parties most notably the Socialist Democrats.

Any Freepers from AZ have any information on this race?

Local paper says it could be late today or even next week before we know for sure.

PHOENIX – Arizona's nationally-watched and incredibly tight Senate race between Republican Martha McSally and Democrat Kyrsten Sinema may not have a declared winner until Thursday or even next week because, ironically, the state's voters like to cast their ballots early.

About three-quarters of Arizona voters cast ballots by mail. But many ballots known as "late earlies" arrive in the mail on Election Day, in the few days leading up to it or are hand delivered by the voters themselves. Those ballots can create logjams at the state's 15 county recorders' offices where vote counting is conducted.

It seems to me that many of the state governments are corrupt when it comes to elections and INTENTIONALLY do not have complete, comprehensive and crystal clear rules for EVERY aspect of counting votes. The excuse is the “independence” of the counties in certain ways but that concern is outweighed by all the citizena of the state knowing their is a comprehensive set of standards all the counties must follow.

Instead the laws have too many gray areas and even when a known standard is violated no one gets prosecuted.

Do they hold all the mail in ballots to verify & count until the day of the election evening?

IF they are being mailed in, cannot those be processed & verified or not prior to the Tuesday of the election?

They can basically do anything they want. The law is of no concern to them. All the election staff have been carefully chosen. The poll watchers as well. There is no one to hold them accountable to anything. And if push comes to shove then they even have corrupt state and federal judges in the bag who make the law whatever they wish. Every vote must be counted. Even the fake ones.

I hope you’re right because I think we are turning into a banana republic. Two days after an election and votes cannot be counted, especially in this age of modern technology!

In this case all it takes is some progressive judges with no regard for the law in order to shut those lawyers right down.

Most of the other shenanigans happen before and during the election when the lawyers are not present. And finding more ballots can happen anytime lawyers or not.

Anyone who thinks elections in this country are somehow secure, are prime candidates to buy swamp land in Florida. Things are not like they used to be.

This is why the DOJ and the president need to go public about what is going on. The laws regarding elections need to be exceedingly tough, Unforgiving of “mistakes”, and totally enforced.

We have early voting in Maricopa County for like a month. The AZ Secty of State knew the exact number of ballots each party mailed in by party. Why the man wasn’t counting them during that time I have no idea. What’s funny too is they have an online app that tells you they received your ballot in the mail and that your vote was counted. Guess their on line app lies.

Republicans have run the state for years. I doubt there are many progressive judges left from Napolitano left.

Stop burring your head in the sand. You seen judges making crazy decisions every day during elections. Tell me this. Is it more healthy to approach the matter from a stand point that election fraud is happening or that it is not. Which results in more secure elections?

Sinema just took the lead by 2000 votes, all found of course.

Pulling this from another Forum:

“McSally (R) has been ahead the whole time, 17,000 up for days……..

now they say the communist is up 2,000 over her.

*UC*ERY going on in AZ on the massive delay counting votes.”
