Summary
The Pennsylvania Democratic Party has sued Erie County’s board of elections over mail ballot issues affecting between 10,000 and 20,000 voters. Some voters received extra ballots, while others never received theirs, potentially impacting their ability to vote in Tuesday’s election.
Only 52% of requested ballots had been returned in Erie, significantly trailing the state’s 67% return rate. The lawsuit demands extended election office hours, a process to track extra ballots, and disclosure of affected voters’ names.
Erie County’s political influence is due to its bellwether status in Pennsylvania, often mirroring state outcomes in tight races. It has swung between major parties, flipping from Obama to Trump in 2016 and back to Biden in 2020 by a narrow 1,400-vote margin.
more like intentional rigging by the elites that fund both parties and who actually decides who ‘wins’
My man, if a shadowy cabal of elites were dictating who won and lost the upcoming election, they sure as fuck wouldn’t be manipulating results in such a base-level way. They’d just have the numbers fudged at the end, rather than take risks with tracked objects going missing.
God, I can’t wait for the election cycle to end so the majority of the trolls, nutters and Russian astroturfers can finally crawl back into their respective holes for another 3.5 years.
Even that’s too much work. They’ll just get the Supreme Court to change the result. All for the price of a few motor coaches.
Unless you have actual evidence of election interference, don’t try spreading conspiracy theories.
Especially not with a fucking adjective-noun username.
Is… is this irony? 🦋
Indeed it is. :) At least I don’t have a space in my name. That’s how you know who the real bots are.
The Elites? The Covenant has gone too far this time. Somone page the Artbiter
Have you considered replacing them with Brutes?
