I’m going to say this. Short and sweet.
All properly cast votes need to be counted.
Everybody knew the rules of the game before the election. The fact that votes are being counted after the polls close isn’t a surprise to everybody. Votes are *always* counted after the polls close, whether they be mail-in votes, absentee votes, provisional votes.
This isn’t a conspiracy. This isn’t a scheme. It’s the rules of the game.
In 2013, Annapolis Republican mayoral candidate Mike Pantelideswas trailing by less than 100 votes. Three days later, after all ballots were counted, Mike Pantelides became Mayor-elect Pantelides with a 54 vote win.
This is one of many stories across the country where votes counted after election day. Elections switch from D to R and R to D.
With mail-in voting becoming so prevalent this year, many states changed their vote-counting rules this year in order to start counting votes before election day.
Three states that did not do that: Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. All, incidentally, controlled by Republican legislators.
I endorsed and supported a guy who would be happy to get 100,000 votes. I have no skin in whether Trump is re-elected or if Biden wins, beyond making a prediction.
The most important thing to me is to count all validly cast votes. No matter who wins, the Republic and the Rule of Law comes first.
