The Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued a ruling on Wednesday that allows voters to cast provisional ballots in person at their polling place if their mail ballots are rejected due to certain defects. This decision could potentially give thousands of Pennsylvanians the opportunity to vote, even if their mail-in ballots were disqualified.
The ruling comes as a result of a case involving Butler County residents who sued after the county refused to count their provisional ballots in the 2024 primary election. The Republican National Committee, which appealed the initial ruling that favored the residents, was unsuccessful in their efforts.
