I have lost track of all the voting irregularities that have emerged in NY...
legal actions, audits, etc....so how could the voting results be conclusive
tonight?

What is that about being asked who you are voting for? Whaaaaa?

The result will not be close enough to be inconclusive

(814 posts)Aren't you appalled by these occurrences?! How can you give it a pass and act as if it is fine? We've been talking about this since Arizona, figuring NY would fix it and it sounds like it's happening all over again. Don't you think it's only fair that everyone who registered as Democrat who comes out to vote should be able to?!
I'm sorry but my jaw drops at your tone.

Provisional/Affidavit ballots will be counted in due time, just like absentee ballots will. But there won't be enough to change the outcome.

And anyway, just because its been cruddily done before, I have to say I agree with Pyaaar, how can you rejoice at a result that's so far from being able to document what is happening within the electorate on election day?

(94,727 posts)There aren't tens of thousands of people showing up to claim a provisional ballot, and there aren't long lines waiting for voting machines. Some precincts will be open for 15-20 minutes to handle the crowds, but the votes will be the votes.
