‘People Violate Laws Anytime They Want’: PA County Dems Defy State Law to Count Hundreds of Illegal Votes
Democrats on the Bucks County Board of Commissioners voted to illegally count misdated and undated ballots in an attempt to swing Pennsylvania’s U.S. Senate election in favor of ousted Democrat incumbent Sen. Bob Casey, D-Penn.
The vote comes after the Pennsylvania Supreme Court already ruled those ballots were not allowed to be counted, per state law.
Diane Ellis-Marseglia, one of the Democrats, admitted she knew it was against the law, but voted to count the ballots anyway.
“I think we all know that precedent by a court doesn’t matter anymore in this country. And people violate laws anytime they want,” she said. “For me if I violate this law, it’s because I want a court to pay attention to it.”
