    Mississippi has until the 13th to certify. While I’d like for them to call it and be done, every vote should count.

    Idea💡! Is there any legal upper limit of how long should the calculation be processed?

      No. There should not be. Count all valid votes.

        Genius plan: process 1 bulletin per year. It will keep the current government in charge practically indefinitely!

          No it won’t. The current senator’s term ends on Jan 3 whether there’s a replacement elected or not; if Mississippi can’t certify a winner then the seat simply becomes vacant.

      In Mississippi, county election results must be certified 10 days after election day, so November 13th. And statewide results must be certified in 30 days. So the limits are already in place.

      You could have the Supreme Court step in and determine who the winner is based on their politics if you want, but honestly that’s just crazy talk.

      A nation would have to be full-bore batshit insane to let that unthinkable bullshit happen.

        In another timeline we are happy and climate change has been addressed for the past 25 years.

      I think the ballots have to be mailed in by the deadline and then they have a days long grace period, but that’s it. So there is somewhat of a deadline.

      Someone said that the last counts aren’t from that, but from trying to cure ballots. Meaning, double checking any votes thrown out to make sure they were thrown out with a good reason. I don’t know how true that is.
