Napolitano to Newsmax: Would Love to Know Race Outcome Within 24 Hours

By    |   Monday, 04 November 2024 09:56 PM EST

Former New Jersey Superior Court Judge Andrew Napolitano says he would "love to know the outcome of" the presidential race within 24 hours, but that would almost be "too good to be true."

"It would be a little draconian to bar this person from ever seeking office again, but there should be some motivation to get them to do their job well," Napolitano said Monday during an appearance on Newsmax's "Carl Higbie FRONTLINE" in response to Higbie's proposal that the secretary of state would be ineligible to run for state or federal office ever again if they failed to give the American people that state's election results within 24 hours.

"You know, voting is done locally, and the local people take their time. Five minutes from where you are right now in the greatest city in the world, arguably, they vote by paper ballot. Even in New Jersey, out in the hinterlands where I live, we vote digitally, and it's tabulated in an instant. So, every state and municipality does their own thing their own way," he added.

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump made their final pitches to voters Monday in the same part of Pennsylvania, at roughly the same time, spending the last full day of the presidential campaign in a state that could make or break their chances.

Focusing on Pennsylvania's southeast corner, Trump took the stage in Reading, about 30 miles from Allentown, where Harris held her own event about half an hour later.

"If we win Pennsylvania, we win the whole ball of wax," Trump said. "It's over."

Indeed, a Trump victory in Pennsylvania, flipping its 19 Electoral College votes, would puncture the Democrats' "blue wall" and make it harder for Harris to win the necessary 270 votes.

Harris, the Democrat nominee, spent all of Monday in Pennsylvania, the largest prize among the states expected to determine the Electoral College outcome, and offered a similarly blunt assessment.

"We need everyone in Pennsylvania to vote," she said. "You are going to make the difference in this election."
