With the Pennsylvania Court declaring the state mail-in voting unconstitutional, maybe Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-Miss.), chairman of the select committee investigating the Capitol attack, needs to adjust his subpoena roster to include the entire slate of now “bogus” Biden electors that illegally cast their votes on 6 January. With this decision, it was the Biden electors that cast Bogus votes and the alternate Trump electors that should have been accepted as the legitimate Pennsylvania slate.

court declares state’s mail-in voting law unconstitutional, in win for
Republicans
January 28, 2022|Updated January 28, 2022 at 3:54 p.m. EST
A Pennsylvania court struck down the state’s
expansive mail-in voting law as unconstitutional, delivering a temporary win to
state Republicans who challenged the law after former president Donald Trump
falsely claimed mail-in voting resulted in election fraud.

Most of the WaPo readers missed the basis for the Court decision. It had nothing to do with if mail-in balloting is good or if it’s secure. If you read Article VII of the PA Constitution it clearly lists the limited number of reasons a voter can cast an absentee ballot and does NOT allow just anyone to do it without a reason. When the Pennsylvania legislature changed the Constitution to allow anyone to cast an absentee ballot it voided all absentee ballots. The Pennsylvania Constitution Article XIV clearly states the ways it can be amended and a simple vote by the legislature is NOT one of them, hence the Court correctly ruled that the legislature violated the Constitution. With this ruling Trump would have won Pennsylvania and its 20 electoral votes.
When the entire Article VII is read, it is clear what the legislature can provide for are only the manner in which, and the time and place but NOT the reasons for why a voter can cast an absentee ballot. The ONLY reasons a voter can cast an absentee ballot are clearly delineated in the article.
Article VII - Absentee
voting.
(a) The Legislature
shall, by general law, provide a manner in which, and the time and
place at which, qualified electors who may, on the occurrence of any
election, be absent from the municipality of their residence, because
their duties, occupation or business require
them to be elsewhere or who, on the occurrence of any election, are
unable to attend at their proper polling places because of illness
or physical disability or who will not attend a polling place because
of the observance of a religious holiday or who cannot vote
because of election day duties, in the case of a county employee,
may vote, and for the return and canvass of their votes in the election
district in which they respectively reside.

Committee
investigating Jan. 6 attack issues subpoenas to 14 bogus Trump electors in
states Biden won
January 28, 2022
The congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol by a pro-Trump mob has issued subpoenas to 14 individuals who cast bogus electoral votes for the former president in seven states won by Joe Biden in 2020.
The move comes as two Democratic attorneys general have asked
federal prosecutors in recent days to investigate whether crimes were committed
in assembling or submitting the “alternate” Trump slates. Deputy Attorney
General Lisa Monaco this week confirmed prosecutors’ consideration of what she termed
the “fraudulent elector certifications.”
