Trump campaign observers can stand closer while watching ballot
processing in Philadelphia, court rules
From CNN's By Katelyn Polantz
A Pennsylvania court ruled that Trump campaign observers could stand closer to watch ballot
processing in Philadelphia—a relatively inconsequential ruling that Trump campaign associates
quickly touted as being a massive win. Votes that could decide the state are still being counted
there.
No court has found wrongdoing in the ballot-counting process in Philadelphia.
“It allows their observers to stand a little closer, but it is not an order that will have any impact
on the outcome of the election,” law professor and CNN elections analyst Franita Tolson said
Thursday, noting that the decision was “not massive at all.”

Pennsylvania's Allegheny County will not count remaining ballots
until Friday
From CNN's Kate Bolduan
Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, will not count anymore ballots until tomorrow because of a
court agreement over some 29,000 disputed ballots, according to County Councilwoman
Bethany Hallam.
The agreement stems from a legal challenge over misprinted ballots that had to be reissued to
some voters. The county agreed not to count the potential pool of reprinted ballots until Nov. 6 at
5 p.m. ET – the deadline for receiving mail-in votes that were sent by Election Day.
Allegheny County poll workers will not be counting today because the bulk of the remaining
pool of ballots in the county are the disputed pile.
“There is nothing malicious going on here,” Hallam said. “It is frustrating that there isn’t more
information of what they are actually doing today,” she added.
CNN is seeking comment from the county.
“The Elections Division staff will be using the day to do administrative work,” according to an
internal county communication obtained by CNN.
They will resume counting on Friday.
