US Election 2020: Supreme Court Takes Key Decision On US Election

Supreme Court has taken key decision on US Election 2020.

OnyxNews Nigeria reports a United States Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has issued a directive saying that PA election officials should comply with the PA secretary of state’s guidance requiring that late-arriving mail-in ballots be separated.

The US Supreme Court judge issued a temporary order requiring Pennsylvania officials to separate ballots that came after day of Election, granting for now part of a request by the state’s President Donald Trump of Republican party.

The Supreme Court order

The Supreme Court led by Justice Samuel Alito’s order is coming as part of a fight over ballots received during a three-day extension issued by the Pennsylvania Court. The judge said he would refer the matter to the full high court for the next steps.

Although state officials have already told county officials to separate out those ballots, Republicans said that step didn’t go far enough to ensure they can be invalidated later.

According to reports by Bloomberg, President Donald Trump is separately trying to intervene in the matter.
