If every vote must count why don't we make people who want to vote register? Why just mass mail out ballots to everyone including millions of illegals and then not verify? If you want to vote so bad you resister and show real id when you show up. I need id to do everything but vote I wonder why??
You seem confused.
Trump wants to stop counting votes that already have been cast by mail.
The issue has nothing to do with mass mailings to everyone, "illegals", voter ID, or any other illogical distraction you could conjure up.
The Trump campaign has filed a lawsuit to stop the Pennsylvania mail-in ballot counting process because of a lack of transparency and to 'stop Democrat election officials from hiding the ballot counting and processing from our Republican poll observers'.
This sounds very similar to the lawsuit filed in Michigan. The Democrats are apparently expecting that the Trump campaign will 'trust them'. The Trump campaign is wisely adhering to Ronald Reagan's old maxim - 'Trust but verify'.
Stay tuned....
I'll give Trump credit for one thing --- he will not concede this election like a Bush or a McCain or especially a Romney would have done. He will go down fighting.

This does answer a question that's been puzzling me for awhile.
Why was Trump in SUCH A HURRY to add Barrett to the Supreme Court? Whether he won or lost, he could still get her installed in the court a few days after the election. Not a big issue, and no real reason to set everyone's hair on fire with speed.
I know there were those saying she'd be in place to deal with any election related court cases that may arise, and I thought, well, okay, if cases arise for the court to decide.
He was planning this the whole time. He was PLANNING to mount a scorched earth offense against any state that might possibly overturn a loss for himself. That was the plan, all along, to get her in there. To plant a friend inside.
We haven't seen how she rules on the courts, but I would suspect something like election law, Barrett would rule by the book. Using the intent and letter of the law. (If this were a case involving abortion or other things she believes strongly about, I wouldn't have as much faith).
I guess every vote doesn't count after all. As a Pennsylvania resident who voted via mail-in ballot, if he succeeds, I will be royally ticked off at being disenfranchised. I voted as per my state's voting laws. My vote must be counted.
Trump is an idiot and has no idea how each state conducts its voting procedures.
Is it possible to vote him off the island?
Same here as Monroe voter. Read Trump is now suing GEORGIA to stop counting. How many states does that make now?

Trump's biggest problem - at least today - is that he doesn't understand the nitty gritty of how votes are counted, the checks and balances built into the system, and the timeline involved in ensuring a fair and complete vote. He doesn't realize that every state has a different process. He doesn't know that the vote is never over on Election Day.
He also is under the delusional belief that every vote cast for his opponent is fraud. The man is unhinged and stupid. Not necessarily in that order.

Trump wants them to stop counting in Penn while the results come in from the remains states.
Yeah okay.
I believe you have switched those dates. Trump lost former supporters and failed to gain crossover voters.
MV's description does not necessarily mean such people were crossover voters as, rather than being Hillary voters in 2016, some of them might not have voted at all in 2016.

There are many problems. Most of which you will ignore, to no surprise, because you got that TDS going on.
Problems starting with the fact that some states are allowing ballots to be counted that weren't received by Nov. 3rd. Pa. for one. Ballots were sent out weeks ago - why need an extension? Can't get your act together before or by election day? Too bad for you.
Another problem is that some areas, such as Philly & Detroit, aren't allowing poll watchers in to where the ballots are being counted. If they are allowed in, they aren't allowed within view of the ballots being counted.
Another problem, at least in my county, most who (I am one of, as well as my oldest 2 kids eligible to vote) had their ballots dropped off by a "bearer" have yet to find that their votes were even "received". But the "bearer's" ballot was. So where are ours? Yes, contacted the election board yesterday, spoke to 2 people, received an email a few hours later from the Director of Public Information stating that my husband's (the "bearer") ballot was received and status was counted - which we already knew. What about the other 3 ballots? Where are they?
Why have they not been marked even as "received"?
The main problem is that mail-in ballots were sent out without being requested. In my state, for example, people received ballots for family members registered to vote in other states.
Can't make this chit up.
Lots of problems with this BS mail-in ballot 2020 election.
