7. There was a parallel federal case going on

Mon Oct 7, 2024, 06:00 AM

Oct 7

where the District Court ruled the dates as irrelevant - https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/federal-court-rules-pennsylvania-mail-ballots-without-a-handwritten-date-on-the-outer-envelope-must-be-counted

But the appeals court (3rd Circuit) overturned that - https://whyy.org/articles/election-2024-pennsylvania-mail-ballots-undated-appeals-court-ruling/

So there is a lot going on that is really gumming up the works.

We need to take the state Senate back and hold the state House so we can fix Act-77.
