How's this for precedent libtards?
Just read the judgement - it seems that it's not officially overturned per se, but that hundreds of ballots are being counted that were not, or being removed that were counted, and that the board of elections has to adjust the totals accordingly, then certify the new result whatever it may be.
We just expect that to go in favor of (R) Tenney.
Also sets a glorious precedent.
This is a great thing!
Yeah OP’s headline is wrong. The election results are confirmed (pending certification), not overturned.
The R candidate was leading by like 27 originally and now is expected to be leading by over 100 votes.
Reading through the order it seems like mostly sloppy poll workers allowing ballots to be cast at the wrong location or allowing purged voters to vote.
While it’s kinda nice to see him lay the smack down, it’s only like a 100 vote swing in a congressional district.
There are 535 House seats, so that’s 500k votes nationwide if this is the normal standard of poll worker laziness.
Now the flip side of that 500k calculation is that this happened in NY. Not a battleground, and a Democrat bastion of power state.
Now do Philly, Detroit & these other shady metro areas.
But actually though, now do Philly, Detroit, & other shady metro areas.
The precedent is being set that there are places where the number of errors is greater than the margin of victory. We should 100% be checking everywhere that looks suspicious.
