Ok would you people PLEASE get your election shit together

23. You post it every 2 years but Canada only has important federal elections every 4 years.

The US has 50 State constitutions with much more self government than Canadian provinces.

Many things in Canada politics is to be envied (lack of lobbying and dark money) but your lecturing on tabulating returns is not one of them.

You fail to understand that the actual final day of receiving votes differs radically among the 50 different governments depending on rules on how the mail vote is handled and we have one State that has more population than your entire country.

You know who has faster election counting? Denmark and Singapore, but who gives a fuck.

The US has the most complex and most frequent voting of any major democracy and the most written constitutions and courts (51) to adjudicate the rules.

Speed is the least important variable. Getting the most people involved and having the least amount of fraud are the only things that should be of concern to any thoughtful observer.

It is unfortunate that one of the US 's most unfortunate habits: unwelcomed, uninformed, patronizing, lecturing has taken root in Canada. Of the many problems in the US political system the time it takes to tabulate the vote is the most irrelevant. It's taken a week and virtually all the most important questions have been settled, peacefully, without fraud or violence. Georgia is having a run off because that is what their constitution and court state is the law.

As a non Georgian I don't consider it my place to meddle where my opinion is not welcome, not informed about why they chose this method and it's none of my business.

I wish you would get your shit together and delete this thread.
