https://www.cbsnews.com/news/7-pennsylvania-counties-wait-until-after-election-day-to-count-mail-ballots/Is Trump going to challenge this? I live in Monroe County where Democrats outnumber Republicans. Hillary won this County in 2016. There is a large Minority population in addition to many transplants from NY ad NJ.
I was notified by the County Board of Elections that my ballot was received on October 14th. Plenty of time. So now Trump is going to challenge it? I did read that after the PA Primary mail ballots were still being counted 3 days after the election. Won't happen again now? A lot of people didn't want to vote in person because of COVID? Nothing nefarious about that.
In hindsight I regret requesting a mail in ballot at the time I requested one for the Primary. Should have just gone to the polls.

THREE days after the election with less than 30,000 votes cast ( not all were able to vote for this position) hubby was declared the winner and his opponent called him to congratulate him.

(9,263 posts)which is typically 30 days, The court will simply dismiss. On the other hand democrats can sue to extend ballot collection beyond the defined period if they can offer proof of the USPS not functioning
