    Is the PUBLIC allowed in? Will they put a stop to the Pa. Supreme Court making their own laws? Day late and a dollar short.

    FYI! If you take the time to read ACT 77 as passed you'll find near the very end of the document a provision that specifically cedes the authority to render decisions in the case of questions or controversies to PA Supreme Court! Want it changed? Jump in your Representative's and Senators shit until they do!

    (2) The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has exclusive jurisdiction to hear a challenge to or to render a declaratory judgment concerning the constitutionality of a provision referred to in paragraph (1). The Supreme Court may take action it deems appropriate, consistent with the Supreme Court retaining jurisdiction over the matter, to find facts or to expedite a final judgment in connection with such a challenge or request for declaratory relief.

    That needs fixing then. Our Balless reps and senators need to grow a pair before stepping up to the plate.

    I searched for but could not find a means for public comment on this topic. I hope everyone gets a message of to their representative (at least the Republican reps) urging them to fix this idiocy!

    One of the issues that they hid behind, and will not get mentioned in this hearing, is the matter of the legislature going out of session from Nov 30 to Jan 5 in an election year. WTF? If they want a "built in" vacation, go ahead with your self-aggrandizement. But what if there are other legitimate needs for the legislature to hold hearings? How can they just say "oh well", we're not in session until Jan 5. That has to be fixed as well.

    The senate race in my district (45th) between Brewster and Ziccarelli was adjudicated in federal court over the matter of westmoreland county disqualifying mail in ballots without handwritten dates and allegheny county which did not. We can't have inconsistency like that from county to county and precinct to precinct. That issue was the primary reason for state pre-emption of local firearms laws.

    I'm going to go ahead and predict that they will say the election was free and fair, grab a couple clips for the media to run with then case closed and nobody will question it again going forward unless they want to be ridiculed for being a tinfoil hatter. politics is a farce and full of self serving dickheads that should be hanging from a rope.

    They only get away with that kind of behavior if we let them. I've already contacted my Rep and Sen letting them know in no uncertain terms that my expectation is for them to participate in an effort to amend Act 77 and clean up the mess that was the last election.

    Look what happened to Senator Aument after his office was inundated with emails and calls from people who were enraged by the fact that he blew off Trump's invitation to that white house meeting. He "got religion" and did a complete about face. That kind of pressure does work.

    to a certain extent. unfortunately memories are short and everyone just got their comfy jobs back in office so they won't really care much until it gets closer to the next election.

    don't worry though, people can "vote harder" come next election season.
