State statute forbids destruction of ballot envelopes prior to two years. That illegal act throws into question auditing; thus, it could be argued, those votes cannot be certified.
(There are 100K suspect mail-in ballot dates, per the state's official database.)
Already been through this, those ballots don’t matter with respect to the outcome of the election in PA.
I believe it’s unlikely they will be tossed in the end though, as Election Day +3 for mail was the law when those votes were cast.
Election day +3 was an illegal action by the Supreme Court of PA.
Only the legislature had the authority to make this change.
They are all going to be thrown out.
It is a positive step. If those ballots previously accepted but were not segregated but were accepted after the same deadline then this would indicates those ballots must be found and excluded also.
The argument is logical as most of Bidens' "win" came in the last 24 hours of voting. The courts will have to rule if there is a mechanism to find and deduct those ballots or if the election in PA should be re voted.

Nope, courts have just as much authority to rule on election deadline related laws as any other laws and do so all the time.
This argument went to SCOTUS before the election and the change was allowed to stand.

Don't forget our bet.
They can throw out every last one of them. They wouldn't make a difference. They were counted, but never figured into the total. It wouldn't make a difference.
I hope you don't think throwing out non-cured ballots after Nov 9 amounts to anything more than a token handful of votes, representing a tiny fraction of Biden's lead in the state.
I think this is the beginning of the court ordered vote count corrections as a result of improprieties perpetrated by Democrats during this election. Just the start.
Um, PA has been segregating those same ballots since the election because they figured this would happen. PA said the segregated ballots wouldn't change the results of the election anyway. Please do try and keep up.
This.
