let it be clear; I am not against mailin ballots,
Is that why the GOP, headed by Rick Scott this time, is now pushing a law that would make it so I could mail a ballot tomorrow and it would not be counted? Florida law allows the tally of mail ballots to begin 22 days prior to election day. Scott/GOP propose a federal law to forbid states from counting ballots prior to November 3rd. The law also requires the count to end within 48 hours of election day polls closing. That makes it impossible for states to count all the mail ballots. If you are not against mail ballots then why is the GOP trying to invalidate all of them irrespective of whether they are received prior to election day or not?
request a ballot
Brevard County appears to be delaying ballots for some reason. My Dad already received his Virginia Ballot. Did Brevard get too many requests from NPA voters and receive instructions from the national party to hold them back to work with Rick Scott's proposed law?
