Judge Emmet Sullivan: “Regardless of how someone votes, we want everyone's vote to be counted.”
Sullivan on a videoconference hearing right now discussing with plaintiffs and DOJ moving the USPS lawsuits to a more typical schedule, with no more daily hearings.
Notable data from this morning's USPS production:
In Pennsylvania, 170 ballots cast on Sunday Nov 1 were not delivered until Saturday Nov 7 -- after the state's Friday deadline to count ballots postmarked by Election Day.
In Pennsylvania, 170 ballots cast on Sunday Nov 1 were not delivered until Saturday Nov 7 -- after the state's Friday deadline to count ballots postmarked by Election Day.
Vote Forward attorney said while those 170 ballots don't change the outcome of the election, the USPS's delayed delivery resulting in them not being counted is concerning.
Focused now on continued discovery and a possible settlement, Sullivan sets the next status conference on the USPS lawsuits for Nov. 18 at 11 a.m.
That's a wrap for today. Plaintiffs are focused on continuing to track USPS operations to identify pitfalls in the ballot delivery system, with runoffs coming up in Georgia and Louisiana.
