The delay is a state law here in Michigan.
Yes, that’s why it’s inferior to federal law.
I expect a Dem judge to rule this delay runs afoul of the Supreme Court’s ‘Safe Harbor’ ruling- because that ruling stopped the counting that might have given Gore the election- in their minds it did and they hate it and they would like to rub everyone’s noses in it.
And i expect the ruling to be overturned on appeal.
