Here we go again…<\/p>\n

Just one day after 15 Pennsylvania House Republicans\u00a0sent a letter<\/a>\u00a0to acting Secretary of State Leigh Chapman demanding to know why\u00a0240,000 unverified ballots<\/a>\u00a0had been mailed out<\/strong>\u00a0(“which, according to the law, must be set aside and not counted for the 2022 General Election unless the voter produces lD,” the lawmakers wrote),\u00a0Chapman revealed that\u00a0<\/strong>there will likely be delays posting the results after the midterm elections.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Acting Secretary of State Leigh Chapman spoke on Monday, Oct. 24 to discuss voting procedures throughout the state.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

“It’s really important for us to get accurate information about the election process in Pennsylvania,<\/strong>” Chapman said during a virtual conference, where she said\u00a0it would likely take ‘several days’ to count and certify the votes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“So voters and the public know that when there are delays in counting,\u00a0it doesn\u2019t mean that there\u2019s anything nefarious happening.<\/strong>\u00a0It\u2019s just what the law is in Pennsylvania.”<\/p>\n

According to Chapman, the delays would be attributed to\u00a0poll workers not being able to pre-canvas, or count mail-in ballots prior to election day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

She also encouraged voters to go ahead and send in their ballots, contrary to Republican messaging which urged voters to\u00a0hold onto their mail-in ballots and turn them in to their local board of elections<\/strong>\u00a0on election day – which Chapman said could (somehow) cause voters to become disenfranchised.<\/p>\n

“We have heard that there\u2019s messaging out there in Pennsylvania, as far as instructing voters to hold onto their mail-in ballots,” she said, adding “As part of our voter education campaign, we encourage voters to request that mail-in ballot now and return it as soon as possible.\u00a0We don\u2019t want voters to delay<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n

Chapman took the opportunity to convey concerns she says stem from ‘misinformation’ – threats to interrupt voting and calls to delay the sending of mail-in ballots.<\/p>\n

While she didn\u2019t detail a specific incident, Chapman said there have been reports of threats aimed at the voting process throughout the state. She promised that her office has worked to investigate any threat made toward a free and fair election.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cSince I\u2019ve been in office in January, we have constantly met with the FBI and Homeland Security just to talk through what the current threat landscape is and tools that we can give our counties to make sure that they have physical security protection as well as cyber security protection<\/strong>,\u201d she said.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cSo it\u2019s been great to partner with both the federal and state law enforcement organizations. We are in constant communication with them and it\u2019s a situation that we are monitoring,\u201d Chapman added. –Lehigh Valley News<\/a><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to Chapman, over 1.2 million mail-in ballots have been requested across the state, and 43% – or 556,000, have been returned.<\/p>\n

So does that mean that\u00a0nearly 25% of mail-in ballots sent out were unverified?<\/strong><\/p>\n
