So the REPUBLICAN PARTY was DEAD AGAINST mail in ballots when it was involving BIDEN - But it is PERFECTLY FINE for Dr. OZ (Trump Factor) WHY?

Suddenly Pennsylvania Republicans Are OK With Counting Mail-In Ballots

When Pennsylvania’s GOP Senate contest is finally decided, it will come down to a thing Republicans love to hate when it’s convenient — mail-in voting.
But in this case, the mail-in ballots still being counted will prove to be decisive for either Mehmet Oz, the Donald Trump-backed TV doctor, or David McCormick, the former hedge fund executive. Both candidates are waiting for the remaining non-Election Day votes to be tabulated, with Oz holding a slight lead. The race was still too close to call as of Wednesday morning.

“Based on how many uncounted absentee ballots there are and the margin by which Dave has won them so far, that’s why we are confident of victory. Dave will win this race,” tweeted a top McCormick strategist, Jeff Roe.
At their election night parties on opposite ends of the state, both Oz and McCormick were confident.
“When all the votes are tallied, I am confident we will win. We are making a ferocious charge, but when it’s this close, what else would you expect? Everything else about this campaign has been tight,” Oz said.

“We’re gonna win this campaign … right now we have tens of thousands of mail-in ballots that have not been counted,” McCormick told his supporters.

Not sure of the pedigree of this question. The PA Republican primary election in no way involves the validity of - or lack thereof - mail-in ballots. They are just part of PA election law and they are taken as a given.

Even in the case of Mr. Trump - and I was no fan and the questioner is right that Mr. Trump lost - there was no questioning of the mail-in ballots. Rather, the problem revolved around last minute changes to the laws pursuant to the counting of such ballots. Laws that had been, in the wake of the pandemic, changed at the last minute.

The need to change the laws due to the pandemic were debatable, but the fact that it raised suspicions was as predictable as the sunrise. Last minute changes, made in haste, often by state legislatures or local governments dominated by one party were apt to raise suspicions.

Had the outcome been the reverse, it is almost assured that Democrats would have raised the same doubts about the outcome of the election. This was about the capacity of each side to live in its own intellectual hall of mirrors.

It is also Exhibit A for the case that changes in electoral law should never - EVER - be made in haste at the last minute. Particularly at a time when the national mood - given particular emphasis due to the culturally fragmenting nature of modern technology - is so volatile.

Thus did Edmund Burke write, “We must all obey the great law of change. It is the most powerful law of nature, and the means perhaps of its conservation. All we can do, and that human wisdom can do, is to provide that the change shall proceed by insensible degrees. This has all the benefits which may be in change, without any of the inconveniences of mutation.” By making last minute changes to electoral law, even with the best of intentions, officials and legislatures were inviting suspicion, antagonism and the "inconveniences of mutation.”

Bottom line, the funny part is that this question is a symptom of the very problem it seeks to define. It did not seek to identify the causes of the controversy, but rather feeds the coarsening of the political debate. It questions not causes, but motives.

Thus ending the discussion before it begins. Thus also assuring that when the shoe is on the other foot, the same mistakes will be repeated - with gusto,

Trump is an asshole he supports mail-in ballots for the REPUBLICANS but f**k the DEMOCRATS and there are two people Dr. Oz and McCormick battling each other and their support for the Republican side both is 31.3 and 31.1 but Fetterman is listed at 59.0% he won for the Democrat primaries.. Let us hope Fetterman wins good come Nov 2022
