Re: Brexit
Ex pats in France have been complaining that their EU election postal votes have arrived too late for them to vote. Apparently, it's because some local authorities in the UK sent them via the Netherlands because it's cheaper to do so.
Could it be a possibility that this could be used to declare the results to be invalid?
I'm not sure why they can't let them arrive late in the circumstances as they aren't usually counted on the day of election itself, last time our EU votes weren't being counted until the following Sunday. Perhaps it's something to do with electoral law ie all postal votes must be received on or before election day itself??
