The problem is that once the ballot has been “counted” you cannot retrieve it and subtract it, if a later court decision ruled it cannot be counted. For example, if there is no signature on the envelope, and it gets counted by one of the counties defying the PASC, then it is separated from the envelope and becomes part of an undifferentiated mass of counted ballots. If the Supreme Court of PA restates its ruling and underscores the fact that unsigned mail-in ballots are not to be accepted, you cannot go in and find that specific ballot and back it out of the totals. I’m sure this is why they are being so brazen in deficiance of the PASC, they want the ballots to enter the mass of counted ballots, so the totals cannot be re-adjusted. Go ahead and count the contested ballot forms, BUT KEEP THEM SEPARATE AND DISTINCT from the correct and legally cast ballots, and preserve all of the physical details of the ballot (envelope, etc.) That they are not doing this - kinda gives away what is going on here. It’s Fanken v. Coleman, II.
Then go by the vote totals of the last legitimate count.
