The 15th is the seventh day. The act is not law.

Atlasia specifies hours when hour counts are required. We don't say three days for elections. We say seventy two hours. So, seven days will be treated as seven days and this bill is not made law.

Hours don't count. If that were the intention, I'd expect to see 168 hours specified instead of seven days. As it is, the veto was made on the seventh day, with five minutes remaining in that seventh day. That's all there is to it.

Isn't 7 days and 168 hours the same thing, though?

No. November 8th at 5 PM is not a day, November 8th is. The seventh day from November 8th is November 15th, and November 15th at 11:55 PM is within that seven day period.

On the other hand, 168 hours from November 8th at 5 PM is November 15th at 5 PM. When the law wants to count by the hour, it is specified (see election law).

November 15th is within seven days of November 8th. The measurement we are using here is days. We're not talking about hours or minutes or seconds.

The specific time does not matter. The day does. We're dealing with days, as the text clearly tells us.

I'd also point out that that the well-respected former President Fritz agrees with me on this and the King of Bacon along with.

I respect the opinions of all who have voiced their concerns, but this is not a law and will not be enforced under current circumstances. I have put forth my own version of the bill for review. I know former Presidents have had this point of view, so there's no need to change that now.

I've drafted a fair, reasonable and balanced compromise that I'm happy to discuss the merits of.

This is the third time in two years that we have ended up arguing about what constitutes a day. I hate the idea of the Senate getting bogged down over this, but I think that sooner or later, this should be resolved one way or the other.

Consider it resolved?

Mr. President, how much time would you give Secretary Speed of Sound before a replacement for him is considered?

I started looking for a replacement about a week ago.
