*This breaking story will be updated

A Pennsylvania appeals court has struck down the commonwealth’s landmark 2019 mail-in voting law.

In an opinion from Judge Mary Leavitt Friday morning, Commonwealth Court found that the law, which allows all Pennsylvanians to vote by mail without an excuse, was unconstitutional, agreeing with 14 House Republican lawmakers who filed suit against the law in September.

The law, passed by the Republican-controlled General Assembly and signed by Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf, was seen as a bipartisan win that expanded voting access — though many Democrats opposed it at the time for eliminating straight ticket voting.

Because it's the GOP cleaning up GOP mess that favored the Democrats.

They knew this before they changed it at the last minute. They just didn’t care

So the law that allowed the most votes ever from a Pennsylvanian presidential election has been found unconstitutional. If I recall, was this not exactly what Trump's lawyers were arguing back when they couldn't get standing in a single court?

I don't know what the hell Trump's lawyers were arguing. There were so many issues in several different states I couldn't keep track of it all. I just know all the early morning fraud happened in Democrat counties and those counties decided the election.

I'm pretty sure it was after the election.

The change in the law was unconstitutional, but the government told the people they could vote that way - so they did. You can't go back and tell them their votes didn't count because they voted the way they were told was legal.
