Wisconsin Ruling Allows Mail-in Ballots to Be Counted Without ‘Definitive’ Postmarks
Breitbart ^ | 22 Sep 2020 | JOEL B. POLLAK

A ruling Monday by a federal judge in Wisconsin that would extend the counting of mail-in ballots six days beyond Election Day would also allow those ballots to be counted even if there is no “definitive” sign of a postmark.

U.S. District Judge William Conley of the Western District of Wisconsin — an appointee of President Barack Obama — ruled that absentee ballots in the state can be counted until Nov. 9 as long as they are postmarked by Election Day, Nov. 3.

That echoes last week’s ruling by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which ruled that mailed-in ballots should be counted up to three days after Election Day even if they did not have a postmark, unless there was a preponderance of evidence to believe that any particular ballot had been mailed after the deadline.

Conley put a seven-day hold on his own decision to allow appeals to the Seventh Circuit (and, presumably, to the U.S. Supreme Court).

He also declined many of the requests by the plaintiffs in the case, who challenged a broad range of Wisconsin laws designed to protect the integrity of the voting process.

America’s election system is becoming that of a Banana Republic.

No signatures, no postmarks, early ballot request, late ballot request, early-voting, late counting

It means there are no standards, and no real Election Day.

Funny how all the battleground states are implementing similar plans/procedures.

Election fraud? Nah... couldn’t be...

Somehow, some way, these fools have to made to understand that an attempt to supplant the Will of We The People will be met with deadly force.

Distressing to see a judge encourage lawlessness.

Does anyone remember the first public voting done in Iraq after Saddam died?

They all had to have their thumbs painted purple.

What a great idea. You walk in to vote....no can do with purple thumb.

We need to stop with all these exceptions.

I love the meme, but there isn’t a Democrat activist woman in the world who looks anything like that.

A sewer rat gets a boil on its rear end. It becomes filled with stinking green pus caused by bacteria. The bacteria excrete some kind of fecal matter. That fecal matter is what Democrats are.

Seems inconsistent in the report???

~~~

Exactly.

The ALLLLL but come straight out and admit it.
Every single one of their actions and court rulings favor exploitation and voter fraud, but they stop just short of actually saying what they are doing.

How arrogant is it to flaunt corruption to this level?

It’s not like we haven’t been telling the GOP to DO SOMETHING about securing the elections for many years. What do we get? Exactly the opposite of what we repeatedly demand. That’s OUR PARTY!!!!!
