Not so fast on certification in Pennsylvania

 FOX News:

A Pennsylvania state court issued an injunction Wednesday blocking any potential further certification of election results in the state, pending a hearing to be held Friday.

The order from Judge Patricia McCullough comes in the case brought by Pennsylvania voters including Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., in which they allege that a state law allowing for no-excuse absentee voting violated the Pennsylvania constitution, which outlines specific cases where absentee voting is allowed.

“[T]o the extent that there remains any further action to perfect the certification of the results of the 2020 General Election … for the office of President and Vice President of the United States of America, Respondents are preliminarily enjoined from doing so, pending an evidentiary hearing[,]’” McCullough wrote.

Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro quickly responded on Twitter, pointing out that this does not have much impact since the results of the presidential election have already been certified and electors chosen.
The last paragraph should be no surprise. THe argument is going to be it's too late election already certified. No point! 

As you know Trump is still trying to find a path to victory in the 2020 race although it looks all but lost. As I've said already time is running out on this. However, I can't ignore allegations of voter fraud or irregularities. Certainly the issue with absentee/mail-in voting this year.

Is Donald Trump winning or losing? I never know anymore. Σ(ಠ_ಠ)

Eddie I'm guessing we won't know until the Supreme Court lowers the boom on him. He's clearly fighting the results. His prerogative after all.
