NBC News article: Pennsylvania’s voting process is inefficient, murky, and has many aspects that make it easy for people to cry foul with allegations of electoral fraud (whether such fraud actually exists or not.) Basically, the state is wide-open for controversy on Election Night and beyond.

> Experts say Pennsylvania's unique voting laws make it fertile ground for dubious voter fraud claims and lawsuits, but that is unlikely to stop the certification of its election results.

You have to flag it for them. They don’t read every post in every thread.

The DOJ is going to monitor elections in parts of PA, along with many other states. I’m sure this will put all of the election fraud nonsense to rest. /s

I wish they could do it everywhere.
