Trump has nearly doubled Biden's votes in Alaska with well over 50% reported, and still hasn't been called. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing. I am certainly not as well versed in all the legalize as you. My understanding is this is precisely what the Pennsylvania state Supreme Court ruled unanimously on - that this was legal. would the federal Supreme Court really over rule this?

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court extended the vote-by-mail deadline. It was later allowed by the US Supreme Court. That said, Amy Coney Barrett stayed on the sidelines.

The issue will be interesting in relation to the Covid restrictions implemented across the country and civil suits brought concerning them. This is a quote from Alito: The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has issued a decree that squarely alters an important statutory provision enacted by the Pennsylvania legislature pursuant to its authority under the Constitution of the United States to make rules governing the conduct of elections for federal office,” It will be pretty interesting if this matters, and the court with Trump appointees has to make the call.

Walsh Hall Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 5 minutes ago, SiouxFan100 said: Is everyone ok with this. I don’t think it is right. The law of PA appears to be very clear that the ballots need to be received by 8:00 on the day of the election. Whether that is the best way to handle it is a completely separate question. Another Alito quote: “It would be highly desirable to issue a ruling on the constitutionality of the State Supreme Court’s decision before the election,” he wrote. “That question has national importance, and there is a strong likelihood that the State Supreme Court decision violates the federal Constitution.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You left out the important detail that the Supreme Court left open visiting it after the election because they did not want to expedite the case and did not have enough time before the election. That kind of sets the stage for where it is at right now. If I remember correctly the states corrupt AG even said they would keep all votes separated received before and after the deadline.

MafiaMan Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 January 20th: Biden takes office. We’ll then see 1 of 2 things happen: 1). That “national mask mandate” comes to fruition. or 2). Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, California, New York, etc. all magically find a way to reopen their states up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
