Pennsylvania court strikes down no-excuse mail voting law – By Adam Brewster (CBS News) / January 28, 2022
Pennsylvania court on Friday struck down Act 77, the law that established no-excuse mail voting in Pennsylvania, saying it violated the state Constitution.
The Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court said the state’s constitution requires votes to be cast in-person unless voters meet certain requirements. The ruling will likely be appealed to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, which leans Democratic.
Fourteen Republicans in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives sued last year, arguing that the law was unconstitutional. Eleven of those GOP lawmakers voted for Act 77 in 2019.
