Colorado allows extra time for service members' mail-in votes and for vote "curing" which means if there is a signature or ID issue voters have time to provide additional proof.
I agree that a week of "grace" is too long, especially since Colorado mails ballots to every single eligible voter well in advance of election day.
Why is it taking so long to count votes in Colorado? Here’s why — and other ballot counting questions, answered
In Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, every vote could be the deciding vote.

Someone named Donald must have said so, so it must be so.

Well Donald claims that we need to be made great again. Which implies that we are no longer great. But besides "most incarcerated per Capita", I'm not sure where else we're #1.

Not in health care
Not in life expectancy
Not in avoiding infant mortality
Not in civility
But as our friend @Mycroft as indicated in comment #8, U.S. could claim to be #1 in conspiracy theories

We have a decentralized election system with a large number of different laws on how to conduct them. You should focus on the which ones are an issue for you. Kind of silly to blame Texas for Alaska's ranked choice voting system.

It's amazing you appear to be completely unaware of how stupid your statement is. All votes count. Doesn't matter how long it takes to count them. Your using the pretzel logic of your demigod who believed that ceasing to test for covid would make it go away.....

and you believed your demigod that if you got the vaccine, you would not get covid. So if you say my statement is stupid, then I think your statement is stupid!

AZ has had a republican governor and legislature long enough to fix this.
Don't blame Dems for what Republicans don't fix.

Do you take a few seconds and mull over how you could respond in the most juvenile and irrelevant way or do juvenile and irrelevant posts come naturally to you?

So, based on your quick response, it appears that your juvenile and irrelevant comments are not contrived. Enjoy the last word, I'm bowing out of this nonsense.

No you didn't. You didn't show anything illegal either. But now you know who could have fixed this and didn't.

Yes, of course, some Republicans losing close races is certainly evidence of VOTER FRAUD!! versus, you know, some Republicans losing close races. MAGAQ!!!!
The reason it takes long in very close races is they have to count ALL the votes in those races, and some arrive late, such as from overseas voters such as those in the military, and other ballots are challenged and rules give voters a chance to respond before throwing out their vote. There's nothing suspicious about the process.

Apparently, a lot of voters are getting constantly harassed as well. No thanks.
CO-3 voters tell county clerk they're being harassed to cure ballots
The Pueblo County Clerk said one young voter told him the calls and door knocks are too much, and she may not vote in the future.
