U.S. Supreme Court Doesn’t Decide on Whether to Hear Pennsylvania Case on Validity of Ballots

On June 2, the U.S. Supreme Court revealed that it had postponed deciding on whether to hear Republican National Committee v Genser, 24-786. The Court will consider it again at its June 5 conference. This is the case in which the Pennsylvania Supreme Court had ruled that if a voter forgets to list the date on the outer envelope (so that the ballot is invalid), that same party may then vote provisionally.

The Republican Party argues in the U.S. Supreme Court that state courts should not be allowed to rule on election lawsuits involving congressional elections.

  1. “The Republican Party argues in the U.S. Supreme Court that state courts should not be allowed to rule on election lawsuits involving congressional elections.”

    Did the ballot only have federal candidates? If not, then the votes for the non-federal candidates need to be counted.

  2. WZ-

    USA Rep / Senate
