Pennsylvania Supreme Court to Consider Poll Observer Challenge

Pennsylvania’s top court said it will consider a challenge to the way Republican observers were able to monitor ballot canvassing in the election.

On Thursday, a Pennsylvania appellate court reversed the dismissal of an earlier suit filed by Republicans seeking greater access to observe canvassing in Philadelphia -- the process of opening envelopes and preparing ballots for counting. Philadelphia County Board of Elections appealed to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.
