Summary
In Pennsylvania, a key battleground state, over 4,000 overseas ballots were challenged across 14 counties, targeting voters like Mariam Larson, a longtime mail-in voter from Canada.
Challenges allege non-residency for voters not in the military, yet federal law permits citizens abroad to vote in federal elections. The ACLU argues these challenges are invalid and mass-produced, urging counties to dismiss them quickly.
Some counties have received these challenges, filed by the Election Research Institute, despite similar lawsuits failing. The Election Research Institute is led by Heather Honey, a prominent activist who has spread false claims about elections.
But they will gum things up without the justice system acting swiftly. And it could be Trump-appointed justices overseeing them
Exactly, I think the real intent here is to cause delays and spread confusion.
More specifically, it’s to delay the count past the deadline for certification, so that they can throw the disputed votes out, throw the whole state’s votes out, prevent either candidate from passing the EC threshold and force a contingent election, etc.
