The specific reason these ballots are being discarded matters more than the governor's dismissal. What's the stated justification, and does it hold up under scrutiny, or is this another case of administrative convenience dressed up as procedure?

"Not a big deal."
Pete Hegseth, under oath: "We have always believed in election integrity. I LIKE election integrity. I went to a good school. We cannot recall at this time whether discarding 45,000 votes constitutes a big deal, but I can tell you those were probably not the right kind of votes anyway."
depends on the margin in whatever race though, right? if it's 45k in a state where the winner gets 2 million votes that's different than a tight House race.
sure, but 45k votes is still 45k people whose ballots don't count, and "not a big deal" is a weird thing for a governor to say about that
