    Whether or not you have a desire has nothing to do with it. If you knew how amendments worked, you wouldn't have said "we could move it to a sooner date" unless you're a member of Congress.

    There is only one place to drop off early ballots in the entire County of Dallas. If there are 122 as you claim, provide some proof.

    Again, you are lying. They had to be mailed on or before the election day, but they could arrive several days later. The question is how much later they can arrive. The voter does not control how long the USPS will take to deliver the mail.

    Then mail it in early enough to arrive in time. Simple, huh?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    You want me to count the ballots? Are you sure? The government counts the ballots.

    Alaska does not even close their polls by Midnight on the EST. Many states close their polls at 9:00pm, so you would need to count all the votes by midnight. Then there are questions about provisional ballots, which would all have to be decided in a few late night hours. Remember that once added to the count, they are impossible to take out, which is why by tradition they are pondered for a while.

    Kavanaugh does not seem to understand that we often have a prediction of who won by midnight, but have never been able to count all the votes by midnight.

    Or maybe he does, and just wants to cheat.

    According to your own citation, the ballots would have to be sent before election day.
    A lower court had previously ruled that ballots postmarked by Nov. 2 and received within 14 days of Election Day, the deadline for certifying election results, could be counted.
    For context, Election Day is November 3rd, so these would be ballots mailed in BEFORE the election.

    That would be impossible. The final poll closes at 1:00am EST. To litigate all the issues of an election in 11 hours would be impossible. To plan out a transitional team in 11 hours would be impossible.

    But we are getting back to Kavanaugh's original trick. He is trying to get a ridiculous deadline, so that he can cutoff any arguments. If they are bad arguments, you do not need to cut them off. So he is trying to cutoff good arguments.

    Good for you. Yes, the United States has an election day. Yes, a DAY! not a week, not a month, but a DAY!
    Why, as an American citizen, do I need your opinion? If you mailed your vote in on time, why are you bitching? To hear yourself whine?
    Hate and stupidity? Isn't it you who is bringing the hate and stupidity? Irishman? Shit, you sound like a pussy. Every Irishman I've ever met
    is far more of a man than you are. Change your tampon, you fucking degenerate cunt.

    I stated at the beginning that we need a deadline, but midnight on election night is a bizarre deadline. Alaska polling stations have not even closed at that point.

    There is nowhere in the Constitution that it even suggests midnight as a deadline, so Kavanaugh is just making laws up out of his own mind. If he wanted to do that, he should have gotten elected to a legislature.

    How about we allow those mail-in ballots to arrive until 2022? Huh? Will that pacify you liberal cunts?

    The impossibility has nothing to do with polls or transition teams. If you knew anything about the Constitution, you'd know why,.

    We get it, boy. Nothing anything Trump or his appointees do is going to suit you left wingers. Because of your hate, you automatically oppose it without ever looking into it.

    Hello Poor Richard Saunders,

The reason for that is because the process is built to check and double check that the vote count is correct. This is never done on the same day that voting occurs. The vote totals that are given out on election day are not certified. They are never complete and often contain minor errors in the counts.

    As to votes that "trickle in". That is just nonsense on your part. How and when votes are received and how they are counted requires laws and rules. Laws are passed by legislatures. Rules are set up by the Secretary of State under the laws giving authority to do so. Most states allow for leeway in voting if there is some impediment to voting. If a hurricane occurs on voting day or a pandemic is ongoing there is a valid reason to try to allow people to vote.

    Voting is the only right that is declared a right 4 times in the US Constitution. Do you have a problem with people exercising their constitutional rights guaranteed by the US Constitution? Unless you have some evidence you can present a court that is valid there is no reason to ask the court to not allow states to count the ballots fairly and honestly.
    Well said.

    I'm sure Trump's sycophant lawyers will come up with something if there is any less than a Biden landslide.

    Hey. I kinda like the sound of that.
