Supreme Court allows Pennsylvania to count contested provisional ballots, rejecting Republican plea

The Supreme Court on Friday rejected an emergency appeal from Republicans that could have led to thousands of provisional ballots not being counted in Pennsylvania.

The justices left in place a state Supreme Court ruling that elections officials must count provisional ballots cast by voters whose mail-in ballots were rejected.

As of Thursday, about 9,000 ballots out of more than 1.6 million returned have arrived at elections offices around Pennsylvania lacking a secrecy envelope, a signature or a date, according to state records.

Pennsylvania is the biggest presidential election battleground this year, with 19 electoral votes. Former President Donald Trump won the state in 2016, then lost it in 2020.

Harris on Donald Trump in Wisconsin: 'The man is angry'

Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday cast former President Donald Trump as an angry man who has exhausted Americans with his focus on division in a speech at an International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers labor union hall in Janesville, Wisconsin.

After arguing, as she often does, that it is time to "turn the page on a decade of Donald Trump," Harris put a finer point on the way she believes people feel about Trump's time in the national spotlight: "Folks are exhausted with this stuff."

Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris speaks during a campaign event in Janesville, Wis., Friday, Nov. 1, 2024.

"The man," Harris said, referring to Trump, "is angry."

She also said Trump was "one of the biggest losers of manufacturing jobs in America's history," hanging on the word "loser."

Harris, who was flanked by IBEW workers, said Trump is "all talk, no walk" on unions, calling him "no friend to labor" and "a union buster his entire career."

"He's got a lot of talk, but if you pay attention to what he's actually done... you'll see who he really is," she said, calling Trump "an existential threat to America's labor movement."

Union workers are important in a series of key swing states. While Democrats have long enjoyed the support of union leadership, Trump has improved Republican's standing with rank-and-file union workers in both 2016 and 2020.

Harris has closed her campaign by arguing that the former President is more focused on the people he believes have wronged him than the American people.

Arab American News publisher Osama Siblani said he was invited to a "handshake" meeting with Trump but responded with conditions, requesting a substantive discussion on community issues.

Siblani also informed Trump allies that the Arab American PAC, which he co-founded, and The Arab American News would not alter their nonendorsements in the presidential race, even if he met with Trump. Siblani said the meeting never materialized after the requests.
