A Pennsylvania federal appeals court rejected the Trump campaign's attempts to block more than 9,000 absentee ballots that arrived after Election Day.
The Supreme Court in October ruled the state could extend its deadline to receive mail-in ballots by up to three days after Election Day, as long as they were postmarked on or before Nov. 3.
Three judges rejected a string of the campaign's lawsuits, which tried to block a total of 9,300 mail-in ballots Friday. They noted the "vast disruption" and "unprecedented challenges" facing the nation during the COVID-19 pandemic as they upheld the extension.

This is the same liberal court that illegally changed the date that the ballots could be accepted.

So now covid is the excuse for ballot fraud Did not work that way for CA.
Sutter County Superior Court Judge Sarah Heckman ruled Friday that Newsom did not have the authority to amend or change existing election law even during a pandemic.

Just my own personal opinion here. But I'm wondering if maybe the Supremes will have no choice but to intervene. I think we're moving into uncharted territory.

First of all all there are more than 9300 ballots that is a bogus number. They were putting in thousands of ballot for days all which were manufactured after the 3rd.
This will go up to the USCS.

“...The Supreme Court in October ruled the state could extend its deadline to receive mail-in ballots “
Who, in the state extended the deadline? The U.S. Constitution reserves that power to the state legislature. Did the legislature extend it or was it someone else? But then again, judges apparently have the ability to change the meaning of written words at will.

If JoHo makes the White House, the Supreme Court is one of their first targets.
I believe that the prog has so polluted the election that the SC will have to freeze the vote totals to what they were when the States halted the real count at midnight.

They voided the order, but did not affect the 2020 election.

Honestly I don't think the SC will take it ...they'll punt only because the globe and 55%+ of Americans have already accepted the dual from hell as Prez and VP. It's a done deal ..this is a massive hot 🥔 that could devastate a nation and they will refuse to be the ones who history will blame! Folks it ain't gonna happen! But I will tell you this..CHEATING JO IS NOT MY PRESIDENT!!! Nope no way!! Not now or tomorrow!
To: tarpit
They can appeal this right?
