Before you get partisan and pick sides it’s important to remember:
- In 2016, a majority of Democrats claimed Hillary Clinton won the Presidential Election and insisted the wrong winner was named.
- In 2020, a majority of Republicans claimed Donald Trump won the Presidential Election and insisted the wrong winner was named.
So that brings us to today. It goes without saying Americans must believe in their elections. Anything less will lead to further erosion in government, which we all agree we can’t afford.
Check out the Wall Street Journal’s analysis of a potential Election Day perfect storm in Pennsylvania.
“Divided government has prevented Pennsylvania from substantively updating its voting laws since the election mess of 2020, and it will spin the roulette wheel again in November. Imagine if control of the Senate comes down to John Fetterman and Mehmet Oz, with a judge asked to decide whether to count undated mail ballots.
“Last week the Supreme Court cleared the decks for that possibility. The story begins with a Pennsylvania judicial election from 2021. Republican David Ritter led by 71 ballots, but there were 257 mail ballots on which voters did not hand-write a date. The Pennsylvania judiciary has held that dating is mandatory, because the law tells voters to “fill out, date and sign.”
“As of Friday, nearly 1.2 million mail ballots had been requested in Pennsylvania, according to the U.S. Elections Project, and Democratic voters accounted for 72%. The state could wind up with hundreds of undated ballots that skew overall for Mr. Fetterman.
“Maybe Americans should all be saying the election administrator’s prayer: Lord, let somebody win a landslide.”
