Republicans have taken their concerns over provisional ballots in Pennsylvania to the US Supreme Court, marking the second significant voting case brought before the high court just days before the election. The Republican National Committee is seeking to overturn a state court ruling that allows provisional voting for individuals whose mail-in ballots lack a 'secrecy' envelope. These ballots, known as 'naked ballots,' are at the center of the dispute.
The GOP argues that this case holds immense public importance as it could impact tens of thousands of votes in a state that is considered crucial for determining the control of the U.S. Senate and potentially the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. The urgency of the situation is underscored by the fact that the Supreme Court has been asked to make a decision on the Pennsylvania case by Friday.
