USPS ordered to sweep all postal facilities twice daily in states w/postmark extension

US District Judge Emmet Sullivan has ordered the USPS to sweep all processing facilities, twice, in states that allow for properly postmarked ballots to count, if they arrive after Election Day.

The sweeps include USPS processing facilities in the critical, and still undecided, battleground states of Nevada, Pennsylvania and North Carolina.

I'd sure hate to be on the wrong side of the law in his courtroom!

I don’t know what power a federal judge has, especially when you have a DOJ that will do nothing.

There must still be lots of ballots sitting around. Even though the state has been called doesn't make it right.

But people there really tried to stand up to it. It's almost like they should be rescued. We could count all the votes properly--if only.

it's pretty sad that we can single out one judge that's doing a good job. I'm sure there are others, but it's very quiet out there.
