A Republican-controlled county in Pennsylvania violated state law when election workers refused to tell voters whether their mail-in ballot would be counted in April’s primary election, an appeals court ruled Tuesday.
The case is one of several election-related lawsuits being fought in courts in Pennsylvania, a presidential battleground state where November’s contest between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris could be close.
Through a 2-1 decision, the statewide Commonwealth Court panel upheld a Washington County judge’s month-old order.
Nothing, I thought about that in the pandemic when I voted by mail. What’s stopping them from just saying yeah, we counted yours, but then they don’t.
Votes are supposed to be counted in front of independant observors. depending on who you voted for one party has incentive to scream if they reject your ballot.
That’s going to be fun in Georgia.
even in the most one sided areas there are generally a few opbosition figures. For that matter libertarians count if they observe.
