This is a screenshot of Justice DelConte’s order to all parties involved. The justice is not happy with the BOEs.
“These communications raise additional, very serious concerns to the Court about the pending judicial review of the challenged ballots in this Congressional race.”
“These communications raise additional, very serious concerns to the Court about the pending judicial review of the challenged ballots in this Congressional race.”
Let’s break this down piece-by-piece.
The justice cited 4 reasons for these actions: the updated Herkimer count; Brindisi concerns about that update; changes to the Madison count; Tenney concerns over deadline and recount viability.
We have yet to see those updated Madison #’s

Justice DelConte’s 1st & 2nd orders relate to the preservation of all “worksheets, tally sheets, spreadsheets or any other election tallying records, whether formal or informal”.
Basically, after we’ve seen so many counting and reporting errors, the judge wants all of the math.

The third order is particularly interesting: all BOEs need to submit a “final” report of their original count of “all” ballots for this race by 4pm TODAY. Final and all are underlined in the justice’s order.
Seems like he’s fed up with all of the different numbers too.

The 4th and final order pushes the deadlines for all the various legal filings by two business days.
The next appearance in court will be Monday, December 7th at 1pm.
