The court's 5-3 ruling means that absentee ballots will be counted only if they are in the hands of municipal clerks by the time polls close on Nov. 3.

The justices determined the courts shouldn't be the ones to decide the election rules amid the coronavirus pandemic that is surging in Wisconsin and across the world.

"The Constitution provides that state legislatures — not federal judges, not state judges, not state governors, not other state officials — bear primary responsibility for setting election rules," Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote in a concurring opinion.

Yeah, they got around that by mass back dating them. You’d like to think there are protections in place on that postal equipment to prevent that. I know the IRS wouldn’t like it if my taxes were back dated to be on time.

Well every piece of mail is photographed so it should be easy to prove right. It shouldn't matter what the post mark is show us the photos. Unless they back dated the phot equipment also. Regardless it can be tracked.

Yes it is legit I moved a few years back. When I did a change of address I inadvertently checked the box to get an email of a picture of the mail coming to my house. Lots of pictures of junk mail in my Email weekly.

That's interesting you bring that up. The host of the Thomas Paine podcast said that on yesterday's episode. He said the USPS is being investigated since all mail is photographed there should be records and someone had to pay a lot of money. Possibly people in postal service dirty

I know. I get spam of my junk mail now too.

Occasionally it’s handy.

Never said I trust the USPS or anyone for that matter. I have some faith in PATRIOTS TO STAND UP AND FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOMS.

If the postal inspector general's office aren't traitorous commies, they are already conducting an investigation to find out which ballots were backdated.

The inverse is also true.

Go to a post office tomorrow. They are fucking mad houses. I had to go the other day and waited in a line that was a good 40 feet and there was no social distancing.

Backdating doesn't work when the language is "in the hands of clerks"
