[[Democrat]] operative [[Kathy Boockvar]], who simultaneously was serving as Pennsylvania Secretary of Commonwealth in charge of elections, told the [[United States Supreme Court]] on October 28, 2020 that ballots received after 8 p.m. on November 3, 2020 would be segregated, but she changed the rules on November 1 and directed counties to canvass those ballots as soon as possible upon receipt. In some counties, it is not possible to both segregate and canvass ballots as directed. This directive leaves open the possibility that timely votes will be commingled with votes received after 8 p.m. on Election Day, despite the fact that these votes remain the subject of litigation before the United States Supreme Court. | [[Democrat]] operative [[Kathy Boockvar]], who simultaneously was serving as Pennsylvania Secretary of Commonwealth in charge of elections, told the [[United States Supreme Court]] on October 28, 2020 that ballots received after 8 p.m. on November 3, 2020 would be segregated, but she changed the rules on November 1 and directed counties to canvass those ballots as soon as possible upon receipt.
