Why can't Americans count?

[Anonymous]

How fucking long does it take to count ballots?

Meanwhile inside the election counting location.

Dude, the remaining jurisdictions especially in Pennsylvania were prevented from counting ballots before the election. They had millions in early vote, but the legislature refused to pass a bill to allow ballots to be counted.

So we are dealing with the aftermath.

Besides more people voted in this election than ever before. It isn't even close.

[PeteyB]

Yeah so... it's because there are millions of mail in ballots
Different states allow different degrees of information, some of which require very little information in order to be accepted which presents the increased likelihood of fraudulent ballots

After seeing the race be so close, it will likely trigger a recount so... this could go on another couple of months

Uh... they got literally millions of them in the mail this year, on account of covid. And many state governors would not allow the counting to begin until the day of the actual election, not AS they were coming in. So blame policies. (Yeah, and they're notoriously bad with math.)

[Asker]

Yeah because counting the ballots as you receive them would make too much sense.

[Opinion Owner]

I know!!! The Right is expert at strategizing. Every little damn thing to get an edge. (They know mail-in votes to go Democrat.)

[Secret6620]

This question is fantastic! I was laughing sooooooo freaking hard!!! I just checked and we still don't know who is president 😆

[Asker]

americans trying to count ballots.

Little 3rd worlder wants to live in America awee

[Dargil]

It's only in democrat controlled big cities that are committing voter fraud.

[Asker]

Proof? (trump tweets don't count as proof)

[PeteyB]

Oh boy. Well PA is accepting drop off ballots without dates or addresses until tomorrow and won't be double checking signatures So that right there is recipe for disaster NC is accepting and or counting ballots until the 12th WI, MI, PA, and AZ have had accidental typos and mistakes in reporting made that benefitted Biden

[Asker]

@PeteyB Proof? link to a credible source?

[Dargil]

The lack of proof does not mean it's not so.

[Asker]

I don't have any proof unicorns don't exists. so i guess we're supposed to entertain the possibility they exist because of that? lol. it doesn't work that way.

[PeteyB]

I'm legitimately more concerned that you need proof. Look it up. Why aren't you informed on the elections? Google any of this, I dont have time to get a link on every one of these. It's all accurate information, however. You're an adult, look it up I'm not trying to be rude by the way but I see it looks like it as worded, I'm just multitasking and dont have time

[Asker]

@PeteyB you make claims of fraud, offer no evidence at all, and I'm supposed to look it up? wow, convincing case. I bet trump's case in the courts will be just as convincing. lol.

[PeteyB]

Perfect timing. You ignoring the issue is your own ignorance. A fact or true event does not go away because you didn't look it up. It just makes you willfully ignorant and uninformed on the topic because you chose to refute the claim rather than consider it. It isn't my job to do the legwork for you. I have made you aware of information you did not have prior. As an adult you should be able to look it up without someone holding your hand. I literally mostly talked about PA and NC's voting rules, not something you would consider wild conspiracies. A simple google search away

[Asker]

@PeteyB So, still no proof provided. ok. I see. and yes, it is YOUR job to provide evidence of your claims. But you want to dance around it because you don't have any proof. it's all bullshit.

[PeteyB]

It's really not. If you said to me "The Amazon Rainforest was on fire for 3+ weeks" and I said "Send me a link there's no way"
It's still happening. The rainforest is still on fire. It's not my job to educate you as a voter or citizen. It is your job as someone with a brain, and is probably pretty intelligent, to do research even if you don't like the topic or may find something you don't like.

Please, I will implore you as an educated/informed voter, do enough research to hold all candidates and parties equally to a higher standard now that the Democratic Party has likely won the election. I would assume you have done so for Trump, and would hope you will do so with Biden as well.

There you go. Still true.

[PeteyB]

And for the future, the burden of proof presented in legal cases doesn't apply outside of a courtroom. Ignorance is it's own consequence, and there's no reward for willfully rejecting honest truth. I hope someday we can have an honest and calm discussion, though it doesn't seem likely, as I, a Trump Supporter (On policy not social impact), am far too uneducated and racist to be able to be a decent or intelligent enough person to have a conversation with.

[Asker]

@PeteyB your example is so stupid because i wouldn't make a claim i couldn't prove. if you asked for proof, i'd be able to provide you with it. it's only trumptards who can't provide proof of any of their claims. the fact that trump keeps losing in court, shows what bullshit his claims are. how is your link proof of fraud? wtf was that? lol.

[Twalli]

The counting isn't taking too long. Each ballot has to be removed by hand from both envelopes and then checked to make sure they are valid. Then they must be checked to make sur that person did not vote on election day. They also need to make sure the signature is legitimate. Then it can be counted. This is the problem with mail in ballots if you can't open them before election day

[CreamySeed]

Cuz we got a pandemic lots of mailed in ballots and record voter participation, perfect storm of shit

[CreamySeed]

But it is super retarded we are using snail Mail to vote when we have the fucking internet. The government is so dumb.

Somebody should give them an Abacus.
Asian people could've had it counted a long time ago.
