The York County Board of Elections provided an update Wednesday night on the review of a large batch of voter registration applications that was delivered last week.
Here's a summary of their findings so far:
The York County Board of Elections reported that out of 3,000 flagged voter registration applications, 47% were verified and approved.
About 29% of the applications were incomplete and will not be approved until additional information is provided by the applicants.
The remaining 24% were declined, with 85% of those being duplicate registration requests, and are now under review by the district attorney.
Eligible voters with applications still under review can vote in-person on Election Day using provisional ballots, which will be set aside until registration questions are resolved.
Here is the full news release:
"Last week, the York County Office of Elections and Voter Registration received a batch of 3,087 voter registration applications. Our elections staff has been working diligently to process each of those applications and is analyzing every document to ensure each application was completed legitimately and legally. When questionable applications are identified, they are immediately referred to the York County Office of District Attorney for further analysis.
"The York County Board of Elections is working collaboratively with the Pennsylvania Department of State and the York County Office of District Attorney throughout this process. We are committed to accuracy and integrity in our elections. Through our ongoing review, the following is our current status report from the review of the 3,087 applications received in the bulk delivery:
Approximately 47% of applications have been verified as legitimate and were approved.
Approximately 29% of applications were found to have incomplete information; approval of these applications is pending additional information from the applicants.
Approximately 24% of applications were declined and are undergoing further review by the York County Office of District Attorney. Of the declined applications, 85% are duplicate registrations requests.
"For every eligible voter whose application remains under review, they can still vote in-person on Election Day by provisional ballot. Those provisional ballot votes will then be set aside on Election Day and will not be counted until the questions related to their registration are resolved.
"York County is following the law and our process, as we always have, to ensure that every eligible voter is able to vote and that every legal vote is counted. We want to reassure our community that our process is working, and the integrity, safety, and security of our elections is sound."
Former President Donald Trump alleged in a social media post that York County received "thousands" of potentially fraudulent election-related applications from a third-party group.
Lancaster County investigation
An investigation is also continuing in Lancaster County, where District Attorney Heather Adams said detectives continue to try to determine who submitted fraudulent voter registration applications at or near the deadline.
In addition to hundreds of fraudulent applications, Adams said hundreds more couldn’t be verified.
"This office remains committed to using all resources to investigate these acts and will file all applicable charges should we find the necessary evidence to do so," Adams said in a news release.
The district attorney's office believes the fraudulent voter registrations are connected to large-scale canvassing operations dating back to June.

It would be interesting to know of the ones declined, what the party breakdown is
Sounds like there are some folks actually doing their jobs this election in PA.
Not to worry; we’re told election fraud rarely happens
/s
What gives rise to all this nonsense?
The combination of Last minute registrations - instead a 60-90 day before an election date certain, together with “provsional ballots”, voting before election day, mass mail in ballotins and loose standears for absentee ballots.
All these things increase the possible channels for fraud amd when combined foster the voting chaos - intemtionally.
It all begins with the idea that is the government’s job to see to it you get registered, instead of it being 100% your responsibility to (a) found out where to register and (b) get it done weeks before an election. That would show you really respect that voting is YOUR duty, not the government’s excusing how unimportant you think registering is, until the last minute.
I believe in ONE voting day, period. It always worked for the Republic for most of the nation’s history and it remains good ebough today.
Why did the Dims push the changes.
Like the Soviets they believe in the government insuring no one fails to vote. The deep truth is a non-vote is a vote, a vote that rejects the nomineees. By the Dims insisting all persons must vote, they are trying to insure more of the least informed among will vote - for them.
But I disagree on early in-person voting. It can be as rigorous as day-of-election voting. I've done it twice now.
