The Republican National Committee (RNC) has filed two lawsuits in Pennsylvania to halt the counting of undated mail ballots, following a Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling that allowed such ballots to be included in the election process. RNC Chairman Michael Whatley emphasized the need to protect the integrity of the electoral process amid claims from incumbent Democrat Sen. Bob Casey, who has refused to concede the closely contested race against Republican challenger Dave McCormick. As of now, McCormick leads by about 29,000 votes, triggering an automatic statewide recount due to the close margin. The RNC's legal actions target the decisions made by various county boards to count the ballots, which they label as illegal. The recount is expected to cost taxpayers over $1 million and must be completed by November 26, with results reported by November 27. The situation has sparked accusations from both sides, with Democrats alleging that the RNC's lawsuits aim to disenfranchise voters.
