- Pennsylvania’s top court ruled on Thursday that state officials dealing with a surge in mail-in ballots due to the coronavirus pandemic can accept them up to three days after the Nov. 3 election, as long as they were mailed by Election Day.
Like other states, Pennsylvania saw a deluge of mail-in ballots during its primary election in June, as voters stayed home due to the coronavirus, delaying official results in several close races by days or weeks. In a separate case, the court’s Democratic majority also rejected a bid from the Green Party to add its presidential and vice presidential candidates, Howie Hawkins and Angela Walker, to November’s ballot, ruling that the party’s paperwork was flawed under state law.
Yes! I’m a PA voter. Every vote should count!
After seeing what DeJoy has done to the USPS, why only three days? The DeJoy USPS is well capable of holding up ballots for longer than that. Regardless, the most important thing is to vote and to do it as early as possible. PS I have great respect for the USPS workers!
I don’t believe it matters what one state says for a federal election. They do not have jurisdiction over that election. This needs to be a SCOTUS decision. We need results that night.
Wow. Trump is gonna have kittens on this.
This will only go into effect when Trump wins.
Postmark dates will be the new “hanging chads” of post-election courtroom battles.
