‘Real News’: Will Legal Battles Prolong the Presidential Election Beyond Tuesday?

Nov. 5, 2012 9:55pm Christopher Santarelli

By nearly every indication tomorrow’s election is expected to result in a small margin of victory for either President Barack Obama or Republican challenger Mitt Romney nationally, as well as in several key swing states. This likely scenario in addition to growing complaints about early voting accessibility in Florida and a controversial order by the Ohio Secretary of State regarding provisional ballots, forecasts likely legal battles beginning tomorrow that could last weeks and delay when America finds out whether or not Obama will get a second term.

On ‘Real News’ Monday the panel discussed whether potential legal issues in Florida and Ohio could lead to a repeat of the post-election day legal struggle we saw in 2000, and what legal battles involved in a close-margin election does to cast doubt on the winner and America’s Democratic institutions:

Rather they chose Obama or not we won’t stop, we can’t stop. Rather it is Romney they chose we won’t stop and we can’t stop. Our forefathers didn’t stop and neither will we. Those who understand communism and those who understand socialism can’t stop until it is done. The election stops nothing.

  If the election isn’t close, which I don’t think it will be, then there can be no legal basis to prolong the outcome. Read fresh political commentary at: http://smallcraftadvisorychronicles.blogspot.com/

The fact of the matter is there will be challenges galore issued from the Left; and considering that the five justices of the SCOTUS gave us ObamaCare when it is clearly unconstitutional, means they will in all probability give the election to Obama.

I hate early voting. Yes, I used the word hate. There is an election day for a reason. I agree with absentee voting for certain reasons. I would also agree to the military out to sea, off to war, etc. voting early and the results sent in by election day. Otherwise, citizens should vote on election day.

Because different states have different amount of times/days/months for voting lawyers are going to be able to use this nonsense in court. I’m tired of bending the rules to be fair. Life isn’t fair.

The Communists cheat, they know it and we know it. Their premise is if we loose then the other side must have cheated bigger.
