Because they refuse to take advantage of it. The Court has ruled that you can cheat so cheat better than the enemy.

“... when the ballot still has to be received by a ballot deadline”

I have zero confidence that Democrat county officials in Pennsylvania will strictly enforce that little provision if they see Trump is up.

Then we need to have our own fraud and rigging system in place to beat them.

I’m not an attorney but the court is not interpreting law here. They are usurping legislative power.

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct

Anyone who doesn’t like the legislature’s decision should be going to the legislature to change the result, not the courts.


This is exactly what happened in 2020, and they’re going to do it again.

“The court decided — correctly, in my opinion — that a handwritten date on the outer envelope is not relevant to the integrity of the ballot.”

Except if the ballots are undated, the date on the envelope is the only evidence to show the ballots were actually received after the deadline. Now they are free to ignore that.

But they were going to strictly enforce a stupid provision in the state election law that requires the voter to write a date on the envelope that the ballot was mailed in? LOL.

No offense, but the idiocy surrounding this kind of legal dispute is astonishing.

Why can’t we do it as well?

There is no fear of the death penalty either. We do not enforce it in a timely manner.

They’re whining and complaining about this ruling but refusing to take advantage of the opportunity to cheat that it provides them.

I'm assuming you are joking about this.

1. The date on the envelope doesn't say anything about when the ballot was RECEIVED. Even if the date is accurate, it only indicates when the envelope was SEALED. I can fill out a legitimate ballot on Monday, put it in the envelope on Tuesday, seal and date the envelope on Wednesday, and bring it to the post office on Saturday.

2. The postmark on the envelope is better evidence than a hand-written date.

3. Do you think someone who casts a fraudulent ballot after the deadline is going to write a date on the envelope that is LATER than the ballot deadline? There's nothing that stops this person from putting a date on the envelope that is 2+ weeks earlier.

The decision was from the Democrat loaded PA Supreme Court.

We have little hope of changing that.

Oh, yes, signature matching was thrown out.

So, the voter does not need to do anything but submit a ballot. The outer envelope is irrelevant, dating and signing is irrelevant, just a ballot exists and it must be counted.

They key here is that it PREVENTS the identification of fraud. It takes away any traceability and chain of custody so a claim of fraud can never be proven.

At least try to agree that voting by mail invites fraud.

Couple this with no citizen certification for voter registration and you can manufacture ballots for every registered voter by mail, submit them without worrying they will be scrutinized and win every election.

Robert Barnes has exposed the PA courts as being among the most corrupt in the entire nation. Why some court could simply override the legislature and the constitution is a fine example of how corrupt the justice system has become.

And what are the PA Republicans doing now that they are allowed to cheat? What does their fraud operation look like? It needs to be better than the Dems.

Then do two fraud drops. Once the Dems think they have enough to win, drop 100k more fraudulent ballots. This is not that hard.
