Kamala Harris campaign lawyer Marc Elias is celebrating a defeat for the RNC in Nevada, whose Supreme Court has ruled that mail-in ballots without a postmark can be counted up to three days following Election Day. We don't know what the Nevada Supreme Court was thinking, but we don't see how this contributes to election integrity.
🚨BREAKING: Nevada Supreme Court DENIES Republican appeal in mail-in ballot lawsuit. Non-postmarked ballots received up to three days after Election Day will be counted.

A big victory for the voters of Nevada and our clients. Another loss for the RNC.https://t.co/NSmCAvpiW1
So the Republicans are still working on voter suppression, expecting people to mail their ballots before Election Day and have them postmarked with the date they were sent.
This just proves how desperate the left is to hold onto power, bending the rules to suit their narrative. But congratulations on your hollow win, Marc! Keep cheering for a system that prioritizes convenience over accountability. Sounds like a real democratic ideal, doesn’t it?

Wow, a whole bunch of mail-in ballots without postmarks just happened to appear three days after Donald Trump won the election. At least with that advance notice they know exactly how many ballots they need to find.
Kamala Harris campaign lawyer Marc Elias is hyping his firm’s victory to allow Nevada mail-in ballots to be counted up to *3 days* after the election even if they *don’t* have a postmark on the envelope. https://t.co/WY6QjxHZac

A plaintiff in this case from an “alliance” of retired Nevadans, which happens to led by a bunch of labor union officials

There is no reason, I repeat NO REASON, to need this much time to count ballots with the type of technology and resources we have at our disposal.

The only reason they need this much time to count ballots is simple: to cheat. https://t.co/7STPS3ktOZ
It’s insane. There is no excuse for this.

What is it with the American electoral system? Most first world nations know the results within hours of polls closing

How is something mailed if it has no postmark?

Its a big victory for fraud and ballot harvesting.

That's not a victory! That's election integrity failure!

How is this good for anyone except people who want to cheat?

Describe to me the person we would be disenfranchising by rejecting this ballot.
A person who is cheating. That’s the description.
You liberals celebrating the counting of non-postmarked ballots being counted after 3 days tells me how you really feel about democracy

Congratulations. This gaping hole in election security will allow people to see what the vote count is and stuff envelopes. Good job, traitor.

How is this a victory? It's only a victory if you plan on cheating by stuffing ballots after you know how many you need to catch up. Ridiculous. There's a special place in hell for you.

You keep them filled out and stored in a warehouse somewhere and keep bringing out as many boxes out until you get the desired result.

Someone in the replies noted that this is the law on the books in Nevada, and the Supreme Court is simply upholding the law. But that law needs to change. We learned in 2020 that you're not allowed to question election results, and yet you have shenanigans like this going on.
