💨 Abstract

In Pennsylvania, a House-approved election law proposal, introduced by Democratic Speaker Joanna McClinton, aims to enhance voting accessibility by offering over a week of early voting and allowing counties to start processing mail-in ballots a week earlier. Key elements include standardized rules for ballot drop boxes, electronic voter lists, and streamlined procedures for mail-in ballots. The bill narrowly passed, 102-101, with all Republicans opposed. Its future in the GOP-controlled Senate is uncertain.
