Pennsylvanians Scramble To Fix Mail-In Ballots After Court Ruling
Newsy
The Pennsylvania Department of State said it was unclear just how many mail-in ballots are at issue over flawed signatures or incorrect dates.
Some of Pennsylvania's largest counties scrambled Monday to help voters fix mail-in ballots that have fatal flaws such as incorrect dates or missing signatures on the envelopes used to send them in, bringing about confusion and legal challenges in the battleground state on the eve of the election.
Elections officials in Philadelphia and Allegheny County, which includes Pittsburgh, announced measures they were taking in response to state Supreme Court rulings in recent days that said mail-in ballots may not be counted if they lack accurate handwritten dates on the exterior envelopes.
