Pa. ‘Probably' Won't Know Presidential Election Results on Nov. 3, Wolf Says
nbcphiladelphia ^ | 10/30/2020 | Rudy Chinchilla

An influx of millions of mail-in ballots across Pennsylvania means that the state will probably not know the results of the presidential race on Election Night, Gov. Tom Wolf said Thursday as he urged patience while results are certified.

The warning came as the governor and Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar revealed some 2.1 million mail-in ballots have been returned already, with the total expected to rise to around 3 million by the time the Nov. 3 election happens.

“The fact is, counting the surge in mail in ballots is gonna take, we’re sure, more time than it used to,” Wolf said. “And we probably won’t know the results on Election Night, so all of us are gonna have to be patient.”

Uncertainty in Pennsylvania – a crucial swing state pickup for both President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden – on Election Night will likely have an effect on the entire race and could delay the time, or even date, by which prognosticators may declare a winner.

Dems have been wrong on every prognostication they’ve made. This will be no different.

This is intentional. Too bad the Supreme Court and Chief Justice Roberts are enabling them.

The SC just allowed them to receive mail in ballots 3 days after election day. Basically Wolf is announcing they will have three days to manufacture enough mail in ballots from Philly’s black districts to overcome Trump’s victory margin as counted on election day

They’ll know. They just won’t admit it and try to manufacture more votes for Biden.

Yes we will. It just won’t be certified.

Or it will remain at 98% for 3 days.

let’s hope that so many counties go for the President in a huge fashion that there will be no question who won the state-

Mail-in ballots are counted by scanners just like in-person votes, they aren’t counted by hand. Why would it take longer? Maybe he means that once all the votes are counted and they figure out how many they need to produce in order to make Biden the winner, that might take longer.

The latest SC decision to NOT stay the PA Supreme Court did NOT stop any future requests for SCOTUS to step in....with all 9 Justices this time.
