Why must we know elections results immediately?

One of the Democrats' fatuous arguments is that it might take days or weeks to verify and hand count ballots in order to determine election results. This often occurs in close elections, so what's the problem? It took over a month to decide Bush v. Gore, but what harm was done? There was still another six weeks to go before the inauguration. Why are Democrats so opposed to vote verification?

What harm. Millions of dollars were wasted on that election, not by the campaign, but the constant whining by Gore that the election was stolen from him. I think there were 7 HANGING CHAD recounts with the supreme court finally making the final decision.

Given we have suffered through this shit for better than a year I'd like to know ASAP, not a month later.

Hell, I voted today so now I'll have to wait two months?
So the speed of announcing the vote is more important than verifying the vote?

With the technology available, including AI, there should be absolutely no reason ballots cannot be tabulated quickly. To put things into perspective, the USPS processes an average of 319M pieces of mail per day and India, with 612 million voters in its 2024 general election, were able to tabulate results within hours of polls closing.

It's all bullshit that the United States can't produce similar results using the technology advancements available.

When i was a lot younger, and i voted for the first time for Gerald Ford, that night i found out that the peanut farmer from Ga, won the election. No we didnt have to wait days or weeks, we knew that night, the 3rd worst president got elected. Maybe we need to go back to the old days of elections, you show up, you cast your vote, unless you are military, then you get mail in, but everyone else, do it the right way, and show an ID, like i did.
 
Yes, it speaks to the efficiency of the voting system.....Why give the dems time to produce votes?
uhm----'haste makes waste' <<< or something like that----the possibility of hanky panky must be considered and probably
take time

WTF is this shit?

It's you whack-jobs who wanted all the votes counted on election night.

Did you hit your head or OD or something?

They seem to be arguing with themselves.

It would be great for liberalism if the demos were as corrupt as you see argued here. I’d love to see them sweep every Senate race and all of the swing districts. Somehow the Dems lose seats every time they allegedly cheat.
 
There should be at a minimum, a blackout on results and projections until the polls close on the west coast.
 
France can cast votes and tabulate their results by hand in one day.

States with populations a fraction of that nation can't get their shit together and need a week?

Only if they want to steal it.
If Trump is way ahead in PA by the end of Election Night, and the Democrats say they need another week to count votes, AND the idiot DEI picks ends up overtaking him after days of dredging up votes, there will be a massive revolt.

AND the SCOTUS will be willing to hear the evidence.

I wouldn't hold my breath.

No there won't, traitor. LOL How do you think vote counting works....dems count dem votes and repubs count repub votes? Damn you're stupid.

There used to be. The thought was that if the big East Coast swing states all went the same way, the people on the West Coast figured “why bother” and stayed home.
