The left, particularly in Pennsylvania and Georgia, is talking about how "we must be patient as per the counting of our votes", and that "there might be a delay of days or weeks before the results are known."
Unacceptable. This permits the introduction of mail-in ballots that are not legitimate, and thus, aids the left and Democrats in their repeated commission of fraud.
We need to get this shit in front of the Supreme Court.
This is what I have dug up regarding Election Day. There is no hard Constitutional directive as to the exact day, however, Congress has made several laws, specifically to address fraud and they speak as to the time and duration of the elections:
In 1845, the 28th Congress set a single date for states to appoint presidential electors. In 1792, the 2nd Congress decided presidential electors would vote on the first Wednesday in December, and electors must be chosen in the 34 days leading up to that date.7 More than half of the states in the early 1800s held presidential elections in early November.If Congress wants to change the law regarding the time and LENGTH of an election, they may do so. They have not. Any voting extensions (counting included) must be done on ELECTION DAY.
As travel and communication methods became faster in the 19th century, potential manipulation and fraud concerns grew due to different election days in different states: “The 34-day period during which elections could be held prolonged excitement and provided time for more intrigue.”
Members of the House, when debating a bill in 1844 that would set a uniform presidential Election Day across the country, declared the goal was “to guard against frauds in the elections of President and Vice President.”
In 1845, the 28th Congress set “the Tuesday next after the first Monday in the month of November” as the date for states to appoint presidential electors.11 The first unified presidential Election Day was November 7, 1848.12 Current law states that “the electors of President and Vice President shall be appointed, in each State, on the Tuesday next after the first Monday in November, in every fourth year succeeding every election of a President and Vice President.”
In 1872, the 42nd Congress aligned House elections with presidential elections by scheduling them for “the Tuesday next after the first Monday in November” starting in 1876 and “in every second year thereafter.”
Current law states that “the Tuesday next after the 1st Monday in November, in every even numbered year, is established as the day for the election, in each of the States and Territories of the United States, of Representatives and Delegates to the Congress commencing on the 3d day of January next thereafter.”
Anything else is counter to the laws of the United States of America. This needs to go before the Supreme Court, and soon.
Election rules are controlled by state legislatures.
There is no need nor role for the federal gov’t except those outlined in the US Constitution.
Federal election laws need to be thrown out and let the states make their rules.
Elections are outlined in the Constitution as a state legislature right. They are legitimate when they follow the state legislatures laws.
Which didn’t happen in 17 states in 2020….
It is simply not fair to make the vote-counters work without giving them expectations of results.
It also buys them more time to concoct new and unusual legal challenges while printing up more ballots to suddenly find in some Democrat poll worker’s car or office or trash dumpster.
Until medical science perfects testicular and spinal transplants, Republicans will not take Demonicrat fraud to the SCOTUS. And if they did, the Demonicrats still have Traitorjohn to deflect such an attempt.
Mail in balloting in PA is unconstitutional. Any process that is not auditable is on it’s face fraudulent. Entire election process in PA is a fraud.
It doesn’t mean anything unless Election Day is on hormones or has a penis with XX chromosomes. (In other words, words like ‘day’ have no meaning). BTW, Big Brother raised the chocolate ration to 20 g per week. So we got that going for us.
Yes, however, in order to prevent fraud, Congress set a uniform date.
If you want to challenge THAT, fine, but be aware that could cause poorly-behaving states to set different days and long times. The long times are already being set, aiding and abetting voter fraud.
In order to stop that fraud, I suggest we challenge those states on the laws set by Congress.
Hey, don’t be taking away the right of Democrats to steal an election.
Isn’t this a state issue?
The Challenge should be refusing to allow suspect Democrats from seats in the House pending confirmation of a fraud less election
The fix is in.
And therein lies the problem... the judiciary is corrupted, and the Supreme Court is not obligated to hear any case whatsoever. Remember that John Roberts has imposed this "new is old" doctrine of "non-interference" in state election cases, starting with COVID mail-in-voting.

And check your State codified election law and rules.
Look for any specified allowance for suspending the counting.
In the States I’ve researched (20), there is no allowance ADDITIONALLY...
When an official calls a stop to the counting, one of two things must happen: 1. A winner MUST be declared; 2. The totals of each race must be publicly recorded as well as any remaining uncounted ballots.
A “delay” circumvents both of these.
If the uncounted total is not publicly recorded, it only follows that more uncounted ballots can be added in the interim.
If there is a delay, we must demand the number of uncounted ballots before retiring.
Nota bene: The 2020 election is still on-going.
Yes, however, Congress has spoken on the issue of the date and time. Maybe that is unconstitutional too, but -- until it is declared unconstitional -- at the very minimum, the poorly-behaving states are breaking that law.
Not only unconstitutional, but unconscionable for a country that claims to be on the world’s leading edge of everthing. Decades ago, we’d know by the end of the night who the winners are; now the counting goes on interminably.
Interesting approach. I like it. I don’t think it could be accomplished, but I like it.
I’ve always wondered why this law is not rigidly enforced in every state. It is totally unfair to voters of states where it IS enforced & we certainly know why when it is not enforced. Maybe after this year’s election certain things will change. Some good long jail sentences or maybe even something a bit harsher could put some teeth in the law. I for one would like to see it happen.
