What is going on in Pennsylvania? Pennsylvania’s vote by mail update: Democrats only squeaked out 2,411 net votes on Monday on Election Eve. What happened to all of the mail-in voters in Pennsylvania? In 2020 2,704,147 mail in ballots were cast in Pennsylvania. “The Pennsylvania Secretary of State reported that 2,704,147 mail ballots were cast in the 2020 presidential elections, which was about 39 percent of the total ballots cast statewide,” the Election Lab reported. The poor vote-by-mail turnout is likely why early voters and Election Day voters in Pennsylvania have had to fight to cast their ballots. Last week Bucks County Emergency Services shut down the Doylestown in-person voting line early on the final day for absentee ballot requests. Voter suppression was also reported in Quakertown in Bucks County as a peace officer cut the voting line nearly three hours early.
