Counting Ballots That Arrive Days and Weeks After Election Day Encourages Fraud!
Categories
Summary
➡ Judicial Watch is suing Mississippi and Illinois for counting absentee ballots up to five and fourteen days after elections, respectively. They argue this practice invites fraud, reduces trust in elections, and violates federal law, which designates a single election day, not a week.

Hey, everyone. Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton here with some big news. We have a civil rights lawsuit for Mississippi voters who object to that state’s counting ballots for up to five days that arrive absentee ballots after an election. Federal law allows for an election day, not an election week. We also have a lawsuit in Illinois where they count ballots that arrive for up to 14 days after an election, even without a valid postmark. I tell you, counting ballots after election day is a great way to invite fraud. It undermines confidence in the elections, plus it’s downright illegal.
