Judge Alito Halts Recount of Ballots Received with No Required Date After the Recent Primary

Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. on Tuesday put a hold on counting some challenged ballots in Pennsylvania while the Supreme Court continues to review a lower court's decision that they be tallied.

It said that mail-in ballots that were received on time but lacked a required date on the outer envelope should be counted.

The state's requirement is that mail-ballot voters "Fill out, date and sign" a form declaration on the outer envelope used to return ballots.

There are no indications of fraud, the ballots were received by the state's deadline and election officials noted they would have counted ballots with the wrong date but not those with no dates at all, the judges said.

"We are at a loss to understand how the date on the outside envelope could be material when incorrect dates - including future dates - are allowable but envelopes where the voter simply did not fill in a date are not," Judge Theodore McKee wrote.

In the 2020 Election, Justice Alito told the state of Pennsylvania to set aside all ballots that were received after election day.

Then over the next four days, the state began counting absentee ballots, never once reporting how many ballots were to be counted and at the end of four days they had manufactured enough ballots to steal the election in Pennsylvania for Joe Biden.
