Why am I not surprised??


Democrats for Election Denial in Pennsylvania

Marc Elias is back and trying to steal a Senate seat for Bob Casey.

The Associated Press and most other media have called the Senate race in Pennsylvania for Republican Dave McCormick. But never fear, Democrats, lawyer Marc Elias is on the case trying to steal the seat for incumbent Democrat Bob Casey. Did someone say “election denial”?

Mr. Casey has refused to concede despite trailing by some 40,000 votes as we write this, and Mr. Elias has declared on X that the race isn’t over. The specialist who excavates controversial ballots for Democrats is at it again.

As we write this midday Sunday, the state still has some 87,000 provisional ballots to count. Provisional means the ballots are in question for one legal reason or another, such as not following proper mail-ballot procedure or perhaps a question about voter registration. Mr. Casey is claiming this means he could still overcome Mr. McCormick’s lead.

That’s highly unlikely. About 30,000 provisional ballots are outstanding from Philadelphia and Allegheny County, both Casey strongholds. The others come from the rest of the state, where Mr. McCormick did better. Mr. Casey has won the 7,700 or so provisional ballots counted so far by about 54%-46%. If that margin prevails for the rest of the provisional counting, there’s no way Mr. Casey can win.

Mr. McCormick’s margin could nonetheless fall below 0.5%, which would trigger an automatic recount under state law. His margin as of Sunday midday was slightly above that. That would give Mr. Elias a chance to try his legal shenanigans, which are likely to run the gamut from challenging votes for Mr. McCormick to searching for heretofore undiscovered ballots for Mr. Casey.

Mr. Elias helped to steal a Senate seat in Minnesota for Al Franken in 2008 by finding a judge to count previously rejected ballots and overturn the lead of Republican Norm Coleman.

The Elias method is to look for friendly judges who will rule in his favor. Pennsylvania has a Republican secretary of state who supervises elections but an especially partisan elected Democratic majority on the state Supreme Court. So far Gov. Josh Shapiro and other officials aren’t commenting on Mr. Elias.

Mr. Casey could spare the costs of a recount he has no fair chance to win by conceding defeat. That’s what Mr. McCormick did after it became clear after a recount was triggered that he couldn’t win his 2022 GOP primary race against Mehmet Oz. Mr. McCormick trailed in that race by 972 votes, 40 times fewer than Mr. Casey trails by now.

Watch this week to see if Chuck Schumer, the Senate Majority Leader, bars Mr. McCormick from attending bipartisan orientation sessions for new Senators. That would show he’s on board for Mr. Elias’s election steal attempt. If he bars Mr. McCormick, we assume Republicans will call him out for his election denialism. We also await the outraged editorials denouncing this threat to democracy.

The POINT IS, you should be admitting you WERE WRONG!

I'm hearing there's tens of thousands of ballets that could put out Casey on top. But the gop won't let them count those ballots. Read that somewhere yesterday

A recount and counting ALL the ballots shouldn't bother anyone in a democracy? Heh'?
