10 Days+ to count ballots

wetmule · Oct 23, 2024

Total Bullshit!

There's only 1 reason why we won't find out election results the day of the election. Several other battle ground states have made the exact same announcement.

Maricopa county has 2.1 million voters and it takes them 10 days+ to tabulate the results?
Texas has 18.6 million registered voters, you will know the results on Nov 5.
Florida has 14 million registered voters, you will know the results on Nov. 5

Taiwan's recent election in January had 20 million voters. They use paper ballot only, one day only to vote, no absentee, no early, no proxy, no electronic voting. Their votes were counted in 6 hours.

Yup, we'll be just like CA in short order if we continue on this path. Toxic nut job Kari Lake played a big role.

Kari Lake gets it. Who’s the nut job?

Never said she doesn't get it. Candidates matter. If you can't get elected you get the other sides policies. I'm voting for her

HikeHunt61 · Oct 23, 2024

Gotta admit- Lake has been a huge disappointment. She just went too far with the election lawsuit crap, and it's costing us an R seat. I'm OK with being MAGA, not OK with pissing off every independent in the state. I'll eat my old leather shell holder if she wins.

Kari Lake is a wanna-be Republican (previous Obama supporter) who has torpedoed the governor's race two years ago and is now handing the senate seat to Gallego!

Two years ago she made the run for AZ Govenor. She barely beat Karen Taylor Robson in the primary, and then lost the raceto KATIE HOBBS, of all people! Taylor Robson would have beat Hobbs running away! So now we're stuck with a VERY lame Dem governor.

She has just enough support from the MAGA crowd and a few others to be popular enough to carry the Republican ticket for the senate seat, but at this point it looks like there is no way she is going to beat Gallego.

We need to get candidates that can WIN into the race!

Rant over.

France is paper only, no absentee, etc and they have the results that night.

Only one reason it takes so long….you can’t cheat until they know how many votes they need.

Here’s a question….Biden supposedly got the most votes in history. Trump will get the same amount or more ( most likely more )…..how are they going to explain Harris getting more than Biden if she’s going to win?

Is that a serious question? The answer is obvious.

Voting results is not a zero-sum game when only 66% of eligible voters participate. As long as we are not at 100% participation, there is room for both candidates to get more votes than the sum of votes for contestants in previous years.

So you gonna vote for Kari?

wetmule · Oct 23, 2024

I'd be quite happy if she wins. Gallego will be a male squad member. Unfortunately I think HikeHunt's shell holder is safe.

Well I sure ain't voting for Gallego!

You? Edit: Nevermind.... I just noticed the WY.

Elon can land rockets upright, grab & save valuable rocket parts out of thin air and reuse them for the next launch.

You can place an Amazon order in the morning for almost anything the world produces from your smart phone... and it will be waiting on your doorstep before you get home from work the same day.

Yet AZ is going to take 10-13 days to count ballots when numerous other states & countries can count exponentially more ballots in a matter of a few hours with far more transparency.

There's no reasonable or viable explanation for this.

Homer · Oct 23, 2024

Sure there is......and we all know the answer

Cali4x4 · Oct 23, 2024

It takes time, To re count ( the same ) ballots!

Sounds like Nevada. Democrats have been winning in the 11th hour (metaphorical) for the last few election cycles.

Yep...go to bed a winner....wake up a loser....seems almost magical....

Here it is the ballot harvesting and the socialist SEIU (Service employees International Union). They represent a majority of the service workers in Vegas, Reno and So. Lake Tahoe. Jackie Rosen won last election cycle when more votes were "discovered" at literally the 11th hour.
