PENNSYLVANIA — Today, the Pennsylvania Democratic Party released the following statement on the US Supreme Court’s decision to disregard Harrisburg Republicans’ suit that would shorten the ballot receipt deadline in Pennsylvania:
“This is a significant victory for Pennsylvania voters,” said Nancy Patton Mills, chairwoman of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party. “Harrisburg Republicans have had every opportunity to get serious and work to empower Pennsylvania voters, but at every turn, they have chosen the route of attempting to sew confusion, disenfranchise eligible voters, and silence the voices of Pennsylvanians. The Supreme Court was right to throw out their latest bad-faith effort to muddy this election — and now Pennsylvania voters are ready to throw out Harrisburg Republicans on election day. We need a Democratic legislature that will fight for everyday Pennsylvanians and their right to vote.”
