REPUBLICANS HAVE ASKED THE U-S SUPREME COURT TO ISSUE AN EMERGENCY ORDER IN PENNSYLVANIA — THAT COULD STOP THOUSANDS OF BALLOTS FROM BEING COUNTED IN THE ELECTION.
LAST WEEK — THE KEY BATTLEGROUND STATE’S SUPREME COURT RULED ELECTION OFFICIALS MUST COUNT PROVISIONAL BALLOTS CAST BY VOTERS WHOSE MAIL-IN BALLOTS WERE REJECTED FOR BEING TURNED IN WITHOUT A SECRECY ENVELOPE.
ALSO YESTERDAY — VIRGINIA OFFICIALS ASKED THE SUPREME COURT TO MOVE FORWARD WITH REMOVING AROUND 16-HUNDRED ALLEGED NON-CITIZENS FROM ITS VOTER ROLLS.
A LOWER COURT HAS BLOCKED VIRGINIA FROM CONTINUING ITS SYSTEMATIC VOTER REMOVAL PROGRAM THAT WAS LAUNCHED IN AUGUST — EXACTLY 90 DAYS BEFORE THE ELECTION.
A PROVISION OF THE NATIONAL VOTER REGISTRATION ACT REQUIRES STATES COMPLETE PURGING INELIGIBLE VOTERS FROM REGISTRATION LISTS **UP TO** 90 DAYS BEFORE FEDERAL ELECTIONS.
