County officials in PA count illegal ballots despite Supreme Court order

Turns out it isn't just America's liberals in D.C. who think they're above the law.

Democrats in Pennsylvania have made the decision to "count provisional ballots that were missing a signature in one of two places, which officials call 'block two' and 'block four.'"

Their decision comes despite a Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling ordering them to not count provisional ballots that are missing signatures.

Of the three Bucks County Commissioners, only Gene DiGirolamo, a Republican, wanted to obey the Supreme Court's verdict. Democrats Robert J. Harvie Jr. and Diane Ellis-Marseglia overruled him and ordered the ballots be counted.

Ellis-Marseglia made the bold declaration that "she did not value court precedent and touted her indifference regarding whether or not she was breaking the law in her official capacity by ignoring the recent state Supreme Court ruling."

She boldly said, "I think we all know that precedent by a court doesn’t matter anymore in this country, and people violate laws anytime they want. So for me, if I violate this law, it’s because I want a court to pay attention to it."

"There is nothing more important than counting votes, and I’ll take it all the way," Ellis-Marseglia continued.

"With all due respect, our law department’s goal is to stay out of any kind of court because they’re supposed to do that, but we might, some of us might want them to go to court," she laughed.

McCormick's team obviously disagreed with the decision:

"What the Supreme Court said was there is a clear mandate in Section 3050 (a)(4)of the election code that says the voter has to sign in both places, and it very clearly says, what happens, that ballot shall not count," McCormick's counsel said.

It's unclear as of right now what will end up happening in this case. Let's hope truth and honor prevails.
