Nobody in Pennsylvania with half a brain has ever been able to explain to me why it was so imperative to adopt a "no-excuses" mail-in voting process under state law in the first place.
Because you are starting from faulty information.
I am repeating myself but it seems too many people don’t know the true story of act 77.
The original act was passed by the Senate and House in Pennsylvania. Democrats sued, and a deal was struck between the PA Supreme Court and Democrat Governor Wolf which changed act 77 to include unfettered mail in ballots, drop boxes and the rest of the unconstitutional nonsense.
That’s right, the bill was changed by the court and the governor. And what’s worse, they in essence tried to change the state constitution with a bill which is also unconstitutional. It stunk to high heaven from the get-go.
Mastriano fought against it, and the PA Supreme Court basically said no one has been harmed yet. You have to wait until the election once someone is harmed. When that came to pass they said latches, which means oh sorry too late.
Act 77 was recently found, correctly, as unconstitutional by a PA court and repealed.
