Everyone knows Murkowski is a tool; however getting votes thrown out because they failed to spell it right is Democrat behavior.

Lose with honor, Joe, and eventually your day will come.

"Lose with honor, Joe, and eventually your day will come."

Yes, that's the camp I'm falling into. I have no problems with conservatives fighting fiercely in court to protect the electoral process. But, I'm not sure if challenging spelling is a long-term winning strategy ESPECIALLY when you're down 10K votes. That's a lot.

Joe is trying to stop the erosion of the rule of law. The state was/is trying to change the rules(law) in the middle of the election. State law clearly states what is a valid ballot, Joe is trying to hold the law to what is written. That is Honorable.

Getting votes counted by changing the rules after the game is over is even more Democrat behavior.

The law is very specific about spelling. It has always been enforced. Lisa the Liar wants us to make an exception for her. She has always had things handed tp her. It is her right.

The irony? Her Daddy was instrumental in getting this law passed.

It’s more than a matter of losing with dignity it’s following the law. If he didn’t do this he’s saying the law as written doesn’t matter, that they can be manipulated to serve an arbitrary wish of someone. It means some people are above the law. That’s extremely hypocritical of someone who’s going to Washington to MAKE laws. It’s time to stop politicians who think laws don’t apply to them.

**************************

The law was written because two write ins with close names make an accurate count impossible.

Also, why does this country need people who can’t spell and/or follow directions voting?

Let’s be clear on what Democrat behavior is:

1) recount until you win
2) invalidate or don’t mail out military ballots
3) other assorted cheating ...

The rule of law is not cheating.
