Republican narrative

This is a victory for the voters of Pennsylvania. Republicans have protected the rule of law by successfully taking this flaw in voting security to court. The GOP is helping to uphold democracy by safeguarding election integrity.

Democratic narrative

This ruling will do nothing except disenfranchise voters based on an irrelevant technicality.

In such close upcoming elections, a minority of erroneous votes could swing the results — Democrats must vote carefully in this precarious situation.
