Democrat Primary Mess! NYC Mayoral Race Front-Runners File Lawsuits Demanding Potential Recount

National review via MSN ^ | 07/03/2021 | Caroline Downey

[SeekAndFind]

The winner of the Democratic primary is favored over Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa given the strong Democratic majority in the city.

New York City has 3.7 million registered Democrats, 1.08 million Independents, and about 566,000 Republicans as of February 2021.

Hence the cesspool that is NYC.

[God luvs America]

Wait- i though challenging the results of an election was un-American???

[Libloather]

Recount? Like, uh, an audit?

[PubliusMM]

‘Potential’ recount? Really?

SMDH...

[mewzilla]

There’s a reason why NYC went to RCV this time around, in addition to the crooked voting machines.

Note to Gothamites: Repeal RCV STAT. And go back to dumb voting machines. Otherwise NYC doesn’t have a prayer.

Ranked-choice is a Communist plot.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Know what I think.
This test-ballot dump was done on purpose to destroy Adams' chances.
And it's not because Adams is "pro-police", he's actually not and would be equal or worse than De Blasio.

The dirty secret is that Dems CANNOT have a black person running a giant city ever again.

Keisha Bottoms, Lori Lightfoot, all the black Mayors of Baltimore have been abysmal rotten failures.

But THIS recount is for the right and valid reasons - just ask any liberal.

The more you complicate the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain.

"...Ranked-choice is a Communist plot..."

I couldn't be more in agreement. I wrote this a couple of years ago:

I have a very streamlined thought process:

If the left wants to change something relating to elections, it is bad. It is to rejected out of hand.

With the Left, they want to gain the electoral advantage by attacking the integrity of the process on many fronts to tilt the table overall in their favor no matter the issues at hand. They know they cannot do it with their policies because there is no mandate for their policies. Who wants to pay higher taxes? That kind of thing. So they attack the electoral process on all fronts.

So they try to do it via changing the electoral process. Just look at everything they propose or reject:

• Soros backed Secretary of State Project (to get Leftists into office who can set the voting rules for states...people aren't paying any attention to this so this flies under the radar)
  
  
• Ballot Harvesting
  
  
• Ranked Choice Voting
  
  
• Compacts between states to give their electoral votes to whoever wins the national popular vote
  
  
• Efforts to persuade electors in the Electoral College to swing votes depending on what the Left desires, not the voters in the state.
  
  
• Efforts to outright remove the Electoral College and implement a national popular vote.
  
  
• Relaxation of absentee ballot provisions
  
  
• Extension of both absentee ballot and in-person voting time frames, opening the voting process up as much, and as long as possible to increase the odds of successful voter fraud
  
  
• Motor Voter Registration
  
  
• Opposition to Voter ID laws
  
  
• Opposition to maintenance of voter rolls to remove dead people and people who have left that area.
  
  
• Gerrymandering of voting districts (both sides do this, but it is done primarily by the Left for political advantage, not to correct a wrong situation)
  
  
• Outright voter fraud

They are attacking this on many fronts, and I believe they are succeeding. Things like The Secretary of State Project, ballot harvesting and ranked voting seem pretty innocuous, but they will eventually have large impacts.

We need to fight these traitors tooth and nail.

Yup! I know I’d be filing suit for an actual recount, but maybe the author knows something we don’t.

[firebrand]

Going back to the dumb voting machines is not the answer.

"New York City has 3.7 million registered Democrats

Talk about a clogged metropolitan-sized toilet!!!

[immadashell]

… but there are many absentee ballots still outstanding and waiting to be counted.

WHY???

[lewislynn]

Has Fox called a winner yet?

Maybe they could just call Pence to certify the election.

< /sarcasm >

[ALPAPilot]

Have the figured out who won the Iowa Caucus yet?

[ronnie raygun]

If you cant win cheat, rank voting is just one of the tools

[BushCountry]

Has Fox called a winner yet?

Yes sir, they declared Adams the winner of AZ 2024 presidential election. Figured they get that out of the way early.

[Norseman]

Maybe I’m not clear on how rank choice voting works, but it seems to me that they have to count all the ballots first (including each and every absentee ballot) before they can move to the ranking process. Otherwise, they won’t know who is actually in last place, next-to-last, etc.

And, as I understand it, they have to start the ranking by reassigning the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th place choices of those voters whose candidate came in last. If you don’t know who that is (because all the votes have yet to be counted), how do you proceed with ranking, as they have done?

Are they that dense, or am I missing something?
