"The ruling is a victory for voting-rights advocates, who had tried to force various counties, especially Republican-controlled counties, to allow voters to cast a provisional ballot on Election Day if they had realised their mail-in ballot was to be rejected for any of a variety of errors."
"The Supreme Court justices left in place a decision by Pennsylvania's top court that elections officials must count provisional ballots cast by voters whose mail-in ballots were rejected."
"Reports suggested that as of late this week, somewhere close to 9,000 ballots out of more than 1.6 million were returned, as they had arrived at election offices around Pennsylvania lacking a secrecy envelope, a signature or a date."
"In Pennsylvania and across the country, Trump and his allies are trying to make it harder for your vote to be counted, while this ruling reflects a step towards protecting voters' rights."
