Summary

The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania affirmed the Commonwealth Court’s decision, holding that Washington County’s policy of failing to notify voters of facial defects in mail‑in ballot return packets violated procedural due process. The Court upheld the permanent injunction requiring notice, accurate SURE coding, and proper poll‑book entries, and recognized a statutory liberty interest to cast a provisional ballot.
