Schumer Urges Florida to Ignore Ballot Deadlines

[The Purge]

NOTHING says DemonRAT party better than it's Biggest Leader telling his fellow DemonRATS to DIDOBEY THE LAW....after all HE is in NY and has no chance of being arrested for unlawful acts!

Senator Chuck Schumer on Tuesday encouraged Florida to blow off fast-approaching deadlines to submit vote totals for the Senate race where Republican Rick Scott leads incumbent Democratic senator Bill Nelson by a tiny margin.

“The more time that passes since election day, the better things keep looking for Democrats,” Schumer said at a joint press conference with Nelson in Washington, D.C.

“Supervisors of the elections should have all the time they need to count every Floridan’s ballot,” the Senate minority leader said. “Even if the vote count has to go beyond Sunday.”

Schumer said the deadlines should be ignored since the Senate race does not have an electoral vote in Congress scheduled for December as the 2000 presidential race did when it underwent a recount in Florida.

“We will not have a rerun of 2000, when bullying and intimidation ruled and created a rush to judgement that, to this day, many Americans believe that election was unfairly decided,” Schumer said. “That cannot happen again.”

The Florida governor has a mere 12,562 more votes than Nelson according to the current count.

Why vote? If we beat the dems they just steal the election and the GOP says nothing....

Oh they send out Rubio to "sound the alarm" but he wants Trump to lose the senate as bad as Pelosi does.....

I'm getting upset. No where does he say "Legal votes" be counted? I hope he has a painful multi year struggle to his death. I hope the orderlies torture him off hours. Die slow and horrible forker.

Leave it to Chuck Schumer the biggest cocksucker in the senate to tell people to ignore the courts.

I hope they do.

And the next time the 9th says anything about Trumps E.O.'s, we will tell them to shove it up their asses and do what we want.

On the morning after Election Day, George W. Bush held an unofficial lead of 1,784 votes in Florida, but to his campaign strategists the margin felt perilously slim. They were right to worry. Within a week, recounts would erode Mr. Bush's unofficial lead to just 300 votes.

With the presidency hanging on the outcome in Florida, the Bush team quickly grasped that the best hope of ensuring victory was the trove of ballots still arriving in the mail from Florida residents living abroad. Over the next 18 days, the Republicans mounted a legal and public relations campaign to persuade canvassing boards in Bush strongholds to waive the state's election laws when counting overseas absentee ballots.

Their goal was simple: to count the maximum number of overseas ballots in counties won by Mr. Bush, particularly those with a high concentration of military voters, while seeking to disqualify overseas ballots in counties won by Vice President Al Gore.

Every vote needs to be counted, not just the republican vote.

Democrats love to advocate lawlessness, and don't care about the rule of law. They only want the laws that benefit them. Anti American hypocrites.

Just taking a page out of Bush Jr and the GOP playbook, but they are going to count every vote. Payback time.
