Judge Blocks Certification of Pennsylvania Election Results

A Pennsylvania judge on Wednesday ordered state officials to not certify the results of the 2020 election until her court holds a hearing on an election contest on Friday.

Commonwealth Judge Patricia McCullough ordered the state to not take any further steps to complete the certification of the presidential race, which the state announced on Tuesday. She also blocked the certification of all the other election results.

“To the extent that there remains any further action to perfect the certification of the results of the 2020 General Election for the offices of President and Vice President of the United States of America, respondents are preliminarily enjoined from doing so, pending an evidentiary hearing to be held on Friday,” the judge wrote in her order .

Hmmm, it looks like the election isn't over quite yet.

@QuixoticSoul Even the Republicans disagree with this lawsuit. And if you thought it was illegally, why wait until AFTER you have lose the race to mention it.

Could have got it resolved before the election.

But Republicans think this lawsuit will be rightfully dismissed.

[quote]The Republican-controlled state Legislature responded, in legal filings, that the case should be dismissed because Act 77 didn’t alter the requirements of who constitutes a qualified voter, and that the Legislature is constitutionally authorized to prescribe the method by which those electors may cast their votes.[/quote]

@QuixoticSoul
And this lawsuit has now been tossed so it did nothing be give hope to the stupid people that thought it might be real.

“They have failed to allege that even a single mail-in ballot was fraudulently cast or counted,”
