Pennsylvania Supreme Court tosses GOP congressman’s suit seeking to throw out all ballots cast by mail

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court on Saturday rebuffed a long-shot election challenge Saturday from one of President Trump’s top boosters in Congress, balking at his suggestion that it throw out every ballot cast by mail or designate the state’s legislature to decide who won the state.

In a unanimous decision, the justices declared that U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly (R., Butler) and the seven Republican plaintiffs in the suit had waited too long to bring their lawsuit alleging that the 2019 law, passed by the state’s GOP-controlled legislature, which created no-excuse mail voting in the state for the first time was unconstitutional and “illegally implemented.”

Instead of filing it shortly after the passage of the bill, which was required in the statute, they waited until their candidate lost to challenge the mechanism by which some 2.6 million Pennsylvanians voted this year, the court wrote in a terse, three-page order.

The suit had led to an earlier order from a lower appellate court judge who temporarily barred the state Wednesday from any further steps to certify the results of the 2020 election pending a hearing.

But her order and the proceedings were quickly scuttled within hours after state elections administrators appealed Commonwealth Court Judge Patricia McCullough’s decision to the Supreme Court.

While the state’s presidential election results had already been certified, declaring Joe Biden the victor by roughly 81,000 votes, McCullough’s decision cast a pall of uncertainty on several down-ballot races including Kelly’s own re-election which he won based in part on 35,000 mail ballots.

如果，我沒搞錯的話，這就是上周那個賓州的case，法院發出了暫時 HALT 選舉認證的ORDER (不過，法律人士說，這個order 對總統選舉認證沒有作用，因為已經認證了）

不管怎麼樣，今天賓州上級法院已經dismiss 了這個CASE，這個 order 也就不存在了。

下一步就是美國最高院見了。不過，這個case 是幾個共和黨議員發起的，要不要上訴看他們的了。

In an order released on Saturday night, the state supreme court vacated a preliminary order by the Commonwealth Court and dismissed the case.

"Upon consideration of the parties’ filings in Commonwealth Court, we hereby dismiss the petition for review with prejudice based upon Petitioners’ failure to file their facial constitutional challenge in a timely manner," the order read.

The ruling comes after state Commonwealth Court Judge Patricia McCullough on Wednesday ordered state officials to halt further steps to certify the state's election results one day after Gov. Tom Wolf (D) certified the Keystone State's results for Biden.

Following McCullough's order, Pennsylvania secretary of commonwealth Kathy Boockvar and Wolf appealed the order to the state supreme court.

The latest order by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court reverses McCullough's decision.

Originally, an emergency petition was filed in state court last weekend by the GOP ahead of Monday's deadline to certify election results, a process that would solidify a defeat for Trump.

Plaintiffs including Kelly asked the court to invalidate a universal mail-in voting policy that was signed by Wolf and passed by a Republican-held legislature last year. They argued that provisions that allowed expanded mail-in voting in the state were unconstitutional, according to the order.

"As a remedy, Petitioners sought to invalidate the ballots of the millions of Pennsylvania voters who utilized the mail-in voting procedures established by Act 77 and count only those ballots that Petitioners deem to be 'legal votes'", the order continued.

The rejected bid is part of a multi-state effort by Republicans and Trump allies to overturn the results of the 2020 election in favor of Trump. However, election law experts have noted that law suits pressed by the Trump campaign and its allies are not going to succeed in their intended result.

又看了另一家媒體的報道，很肯定就是這個 CASE 了。

從這幾十起案件中。可以看得到，幾大州，不管哪級法院，對於普選結果都是相當尊重的。

粗粗看了一下案子。就是賓州在2019 年通過了關於郵寄選票的法律。但是共和黨在選舉失敗之後才對一年多前的法案提出訴訟，並且要求取消260萬張選票。法院拒絕了這個訴訟請求，並且reverse 了中級法院要求暫停認證的ORDER.

這個案件幾位法官做出了一致的裁決。

在裁決裡，法官寫道：

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

他們甚至無法證明有任何一張郵寄選票有舞弊情況。

恭喜樓主賀喜樓主，

拜登得票再攀高峰，

沖破8000萬，有望沖擊9000萬。

其中有你們忽悠的功勞。
