Near the end of her show, she was talking about polling places being consolidated. She cited Allegheny county for having about 1/10th of the normal number of polling places open, but she failed to say that Allegheny county mailed absentee ballot applications to every registered voter allowing them to vote that way or that Gov Wolf issued an emergency order extending the time absentee ballots are accepted to Jun 9th as long as the ballot is postmarked today (6/2).

This kind of selective reporting is not helpful.
