Court Rejects Trump Motion To Stop Philly Vote
Judge Paul Diamond
“Really, can’t we be responsible adults here and reach an agreement?” The whole thing could be moot.”
From AP –
“A federal judge has denied a bid by President Donald Trump’s campaign to stop the vote count in Philadelphia over observer access, urging the two sides to instead forge an agreement.
U.S. District Judge Paul S. Diamond suggested each party be allowed 60 observers inside a hall at a downtown convention center where the final ballots are being tallied …
‘Really, can’t we be responsible adults here and reach an agreement?’ the exasperated judge asked. “The whole thing could (soon) be moot.’ “
The PA Supreme Court ruling that votes received after election day is unconstitutional on its face. Pennsylvania law clearly states that this is not allowed, yet the PA court magically invalidated the PA legislatures law. The US Constitution mandates that state legislatures ALONE are empowered to make each state’s election laws. The court order is yet another illegal attempt to rule by judicial fiat. The Democratic Party specializes in that.
What exactly were the Democrats hiding that required a judge’s order to gain access for outside observers?
We know what percentage of the votes the candidates were getting before and after the court order. And if the Democrats were hiding something (I assume you mean that they were padding Biden’s vote tally), then would it be correct to assume that after the Republicans were able to watch at a closer distance, there was a noticeable shift in the vote percentages?
LOL The counting hall was practically empty, it was too late.

Former Philadelphia Judge of Elections Convicted of Conspiring to Violate Civil Rights and Bribery
A former Judge of Elections has been convicted for his role in accepting bribes to cast fraudulent ballots and certifying false voting results during the 2014, 2015, and 2016 primary elections in Philadelphia.
Domenick J. Demuro, 73, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty during a sealed proceeding on March 16, 2020, before U.S. District Judge Paul S. Diamond to conspiring to deprive persons of civil rights, and using interstate facilities in aid of bribery. The court unsealed the matter today. Sentencing is scheduled for June 30, 2020.
During his guilty plea hearing, Demuro admitted that while serving as an elected municipal Judge of Elections, he accepted bribes in the form of money and other things of value in exchange for adding ballots to increase the vote totals for certain candidates on the voting machines in his jurisdiction and for certifying tallies of all the ballots, including the fraudulent ballots. Demuro further admitted that a local political consultant [Myers] gave him directions and paid him money to add votes for candidates supported by the consultant, including candidates for judicial office whose campaigns actually hired the consultant, and other candidates for various federal, state and local elective offices preferred by that consultant for a variety of reasons. Demuro also admitted that the votes he added in exchange for payments by the political consultant increased the number of votes fraudulently recorded and tallied for the consultant’s clients and preferred candidates, thereby diluting the ballots cast by actual voters. …
“Domenick Demuro put a thumb on the scale for certain candidates, in exchange for bribes,” said Special Agent in Charge Michael J. Driscoll of the FBI’s Philadelphia Division.
