Wall Street Journal: “President Trump’s presidential campaign on Monday asked a federal judge to block Pennsylvania election officials from certifying the results of the election. Matthew Morgan, a Trump campaign lawyer, alleged at a press conference in Washington that Republicans were unfairly treated in Pennsylvania’s election process and that GOP poll watchers weren’t able to closely observe mail-in ballot counting. He didn’t provide any evidence for his assertions.”

“Mr. Morgan said more than 682,000 ballots were counted in Philadelphia and Allegheny County while poll watchers were kept at a distance. ‘We believe that a meaningful review of those ballots could discern that there were ballots that were illegally counted,’ Mr. Morgan said. Among other issues, the lawsuit contends that in-person and mail-in ballot voters were treated differently, with some people who voted by mail being allowed to fix technical issues, such as a problem with a signature. The Trump campaign argued that the difference in treatment violates the U.S. Constitution. Local election officials have previously said that they followed all applicable rules, some of which changed before the election due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Trump campaign and two people identified as Pennsylvania voters filed the lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania against the state’s secretary of state Kathy Boockvar, a Democrat.”
