Pennsylvania mail ballots submitted without a date on the envelope last year should be counted, a federal appeals court said Friday, a ruling that could mean thousands more votes get counted in elections moving forward — starting with this past Tuesday’s primary.
The ruling will also almost certainly reignite the smoldering political fight over undated mail ballots; create new questions and pressure for county elections officials as they continue to count votes from this week’s primary; and create another potential opening for county-by-county legal challenges as the Senate Republican primary heads toward a likely recount.

The elite in this country, included the Dem partisans masquerading as judges, want a one-party state come hell or high water and have chosen vote fraud as their means to achieve that.
The only appropriate response is simply to ban all mail-in balloting as many countries in Europe do.
Why don’t they just rule if any fake or unverified ballot is “found” it will be counted if it benefits the establishment candidate.
That’d be more honest.
They will take it to the SCOTUS where John (blackmailed) Roberts will affirm the right of the Demonic Left to continue to steal elections.
So no post date on the mail-in ballot AFTER an election can be counted. Wow, just wow.
This means Kathy Barnette can still win the race. She just has to order 230,000 unposted ballots (from China) and have them delivered via tractor trailer from New York to a truck stop near Harrisburg Pa, and then let the machinery take over.
Wait, I recall this already happened in Pennsylvania. That’s right, it happened during the 2020 election when Biden magically got an additional 230000 votes at 3am.
And so it begins for the 2022 election!
This could be fixed by PA legislation and the ruling is probably limited to PA.

Soros just keeps on winning...
Court rulings like this are utterly obscene.
The corruption is incredible. And the audacity of these slimeballs.
Some pundits have said the US is in danger of becoming a banana republic. They are wrong. It became a banana republic a while back. The 2020 “selection” was when they decided to stop being subtle about it.
Why is this a matte for the Federal court?
banana republic...
Consider, if you need to print up and fill-out a bunch of ballots in a hurry - say it is the night after the polls close and your candidate is well behind in the real count. What's a fraudster to do? You can dump a few tens of thousands of ballots at un-manned ballot stations to be "discovered" but here's the dilemma:
If your fraudulent ballots are back-dated that could raise questions in any audit. "Why were these ballots apparently left in the collection box for days?" Or "Why did it take the USPS so long to deliver them?" So your recently "discovered" windfall for your candidate would need ballots with much more recent dates.
However this creates potential issues too. Gosh, you'd think the USPS would notice if there had actually been tens of thousands of ballots flooding through their system in the final day or so. There might be inconvenient records that say otherwise, leading auditors to suspect something. Or it would look bad if a ballot drop box was alleged to have had some tens of thousands of ballots in it "discovered" in the wee hours of the fraud morning... When the box even stuffed (literally and figuratively) could only hold a couple thousand. Again, inconvenient little things that might interest auditors.
This is why the fraud planners really, really need undated ballots to be considered valid. This makes their late night "discoveries" of boxes of ballots at least nominally plausible.
It stinks like week-old fish.
How does this even pass the miles away sniff test?
If PA law states ballots must be postmarked by a certain date that (assuming no PO error in stamping) should be that.
The only reason for such a ruling (beyond friend to fraud) would be if the Post Office had proof in their records that the ballots were collected before or on the date stipulated for being counted and were sorted to be sent to the supervisor of elections.

In short they are upholding the action of the PA legislature which (if memory serves) violated the PA Constitution by making undated ballots legal during the Trump Biden Presidential elections.
Lying, Cheating, stealing DemoRats will do anything to win...why don’t we???
Yup. here we go again.
Amidst all of the electoral criminality since 2020, I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve been told that an Article V Convention of the States is too dangerous.
We’re told to just keep voting. As if it matters.
