Democratic Commissioner Bob Harvie, who is chairperson of the Board of Elections, in a statement Monday evening that claims he and Ellis-Marseglia were attempting to sway the U.S. Senate race were “baseless.”
“The decisions the Board rendered last week are consistent with its long-standing practice of fighting to protect the rights of registered Bucks County voters who made some immaterial mistake on their ballot envelopes or, even worse, suffered mistakes made by election workers, but who nonetheless cast ballots in an effort to have their vote count. Whatever candidates those ballots do or do not lift to victory is up to the voters, and is not the concern of the Board,” Harvie said.
“In the case of undated and misdated mail-in ballots cast in this election, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has told us today that those votes cast by registered Bucks County voters shall not be counted for the purposes of the Nov. 5, 2024, General Election. This is precisely the clarity we were seeking from the Courts in this matter. The Board of Elections will of course comply with the order of the Court.
