In other election news, in Pennsylvania, a federal judge has rejected a Trump campaign lawsuit that sought to remove ballot drop boxes in the state, saying there was no evidence the drop boxes would lead to voter fraud. The court also rejected several other voter suppression attempts by the Trump campaign, including an effort to require signature matching for mail-in ballots.
Meanwhile, in Texas, the fate of a directive by Governor Greg Abbott limiting ballot drop box sites to one per county remains unknown after a court stayed a ruling by a judge Friday blocking Abbott’s move. Voting rights advocates say limiting ballot drop boxes will not only decrease voting, but will also put people at increased risk during the pandemic.
