Let’s get this story viral!!!
Today, a spokesman for Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin, who is overseeing the election but did not respond to a call seeking comment, said certification of the Jan. 19 election by the Governor’s Council would take a while.
“Because it’s a federal election,” spokesman Brian McNiff said. “We’d have to wait 10 days for absentee and military ballots to come in.”
Another source told the Herald that Galvin’s office has said the election won’t be certified until Feb. 20 - well after the president’s address.
Since the U.S. Senate doesn’t meet again in formal session until Jan. 20, Bay State voters will have made their decision before a vote on health-care reform could be held. But Kirk and Galvin’s office said today a victorious Brown would be left in limbo.
In contrast, Rep. Niki Tsongas (D-Lowell) was sworn in at the U.S. House of Representatives on Oct. 18, 2007, just two days after winning a special election to replace Martin Meehan. In that case, Tsongas made it to Capitol Hill in time to override a presidential veto of the expansion of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program.
NOW THE MILITARY MEMBER’S VOTES MATTER IN MA?!?!
More proof that Democrats do not believe in Democracy. They are Totalitarian Police State Fanatics and must be eliminated from our government.

TYPICAL MA hypocrites! They do whatever the heck they want, and whatever benefits the d party, always! Can’t understand how they get away with this when it is a federal issue, but they will do it anyway. Galvin is a slime.
Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Galvin REFUSE to wait for military votes in the 2008 election?
