In NC all absentee ballots have to be in no later than 7:30 pm on election night. NC is not one of the states looking to count absentee ballots beyond election eve.
But Military and oversea citizen mailed absentee ballots are given some extra time, (10 days generally) before canvassing, but these have to be postmarked no later than 12 pm on election day, But those overseas citizens and Military that vote online have to be done by 7:30 PM EST
Thank you for clarifying. I meant the UNOCAVA threat.
It's a huge threat. Reaffensperger in Georgia has said 25% of Georgia votes are overseas!
NO Ballots, military or otherwise should be accepted after election day, and I was hoping that is what this 5th circuit court ruling meant.
It just means you have to vote 10 days earlier than you would have if you wanted them in by Election Day. Why should UNOCAVA get 10 days after the election when all they have to do is mail them 10 days sooner.
It's one of the responsibilities a citizen has if they want to vote from overseas!
So I haven’t read the ruling yet but I wonder if the votes have to be COUNTED on Election Day as well. Or is it just received by Election Day? If not, my corrupt state could still say they don’t have results right away if counting is allowed to run beyond the 5th.
This is YUGE!!!
How about all that waiting you planned to do GA, PA, WI, MI, AZ, NC?
Votes are in by Election DAY or they don't count! Boom!
