Kamala Says Her ‘Team of Experts’ is Prepared if Trump Declares Victory Early, as Election Tabulation Could Drag On for Days, if Not Weeks
Once again, Election Night might not give Americans the answers they’re waiting for, as Democrats seem to be paving the way for weeks of ballot counting.
Kamala Harris seems ready to exploit this uncertainty, warning that her “teams of experts” are preparing for a scenario where President Donald Trump declares victory early, well before every last mail-in ballot is counted.
In Pennsylvania, Secretary of State Al Schmidt has essentially admitted that his state is woefully unprepared. According to Schmidt, Pennsylvania will once again take days, if not weeks, to count ballots due to outdated laws preventing officials from processing mail-in ballots until Election Day itself.
Meanwhile, in Georgia, the controversial Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is extending the timeline, announcing that overseas ballots won’t be fully collected until three days after the election.
Arizona is now calling for “patience” that could stretch for nearly two weeks, according to election officials in Maricopa County, Phoenix.
If this all sounds familiar, it’s because it’s a replay of 2020—just with more delays, more excuses, and more opportunities for questionable late-night ballot dumps.
In an NBC interview, Harris sounded the alarm, saying she’s prepared for the possibility that Trump will declare victory before all the votes are counted.
