Could someone do a timeline on this. As I recall, after the Dems agree with each other on their compromise bill, the CBO has to score it, which can take 10 days. While there may be a Dem compromise regarding taxation of Cadillac plans, I don’t think any compromise has been reached regarding abortion funding.
If Brown wins, then as I understand it, he has to be certified within 10 days.
So if the Dems don’t reach agreement on a compromise by Tuesday, and send it to the CBO, then it appears that Brown will be certified and sworn in before the compromise bill can be voted on.
If Brown wins, then as I understand it, he has to be certified within 10 days.
The question is when is he declared the winner? This is a federal election and I believe the feds require that overseas absentee ballots have a grace period of 10 days to arrive. Thus they can’t finish the count until that timeline is passed, correct?
