🚨BREAKING: Pennsylvania Federal Court DENIES Republican effort to block Allegheny County

But, presidential election is already certified. That was done a couple of days ago. The suit to stop certification would only affect down ballot races

court.

It seeks to invalidate Act 77 which the R-controlled state legislature passed and Gov Wolf signed that expanded voting by removing the restrictions (must be medically unable to vote in person or document that you will be out of state/area) on absentee voting thus making PA a "no excuse absentee ballot" voting state.

Judge granted a prelim injunction stopping cert of any elections that haven't yet been certified, but presidential vote was certified prior to her order. However, AG Shapiro/Dems appealed directly to the state Supreme Court and the judge has cancelled the hearing she had sched for Friday waiting for the Supreme Court to decide if it wants to accept the state's appeal.

have Act 77 declared unconstitutional and thus invalidate all 2.7M mailed ballots. The judge granted a preliminary injuction and enjoined the state from certifying any results not already certified which the presidential results are. There was supposed to be an evidentiary hearing on Friday.

However, AG Shapiro/Dems skipped right over the Commonwealth Court and appealed directly to the State Supreme Court. After that happened, the Commonwealth Court judge post-poned/canx the hearing scheduled for Friday in case the Supreme Court chooses to take the case.

Even if Act 77 is declared unconstitutional we are in no danger of having 2.7M mail-in ballots invalidated. There was ample time to bring the suit prior to the election. At worst, Act 77 would be invalidated for future elections.

Allen West sued on Sept 23rd saying it was unconstitutional (similar to the way Act 77 could be considered unconstitutional). Repubs were saying, "Don't vote the first week of early voting, cuz your vote will get thrown out".

They also tried to throw out 127,000 Harris County votes.



Our State Supreme Court is all Republican. Everything is Republican in this state.

challenges within a 180 day window. Not a peep before now.

An unconstitutional law cannot attach a time limit to challenge its constitutionality to the law itself.

at the end of this run.

Hopefully, it is several thousand feet high.

Ironically, the only thing the investigators will find is a pair of very tiny hands and a few strands of hair, dyed yellow.

it's decision to allow some 2 or 3 thousand ballots that were without a hand-written date from the voter but received before the 8PM deadline on election day.

a Guinness record for the most losses.

Or maybe they're holding off for a higher count?

I’ve been driving since 1pm so don’t know what’s the latest

If I understand correctly

Can we start numbering them so it's easier to keep track of all these suits. Maybe something like PA-11-25-01 for the first one filed today, and so on?
