PA Supreme Court rules 4-3 that counties must notify voters if mail ballots are rejected, allowing them to fix errors and vote provisionally.
Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court ruled 4-3 on September 29, 2025, that county election officials must notify voters when their mail-in ballots are set aside due to errors like missing signatures or dates, allowing them to cast provisional ballots.
The decision, stemming from a Washington County case, found that failing to inform voters violated their due-process rights and risked disenfranchisement.
The court emphasized that election laws should protect and expand voting access, reversing lower court rulings and rejecting appeals by the state Republican Party and Republican National Committee.
The ruling requires counties to clearly label and communicate ballot issues, ensuring voters can correct errors.
