The registrations are part of the same questionable batch Daily Voice previously reported on.
The York County Board of Elections states:
"Our elections staff has been working diligently to process each of those applications and is analyzing every document to ensure each application was completed legitimately and legally. When questionable applications are identified, they are immediately referred to the York County Office of District Attorney for further analysis.”“The York County Board of Elections is working collaboratively with the Pennsylvania Department of State and the York County Office of District Attorney throughout this process."
Here's a status report of the bulk delivery review as on Wednesday night, Oct. 30:
- Approximately 47% of the applications have been verified as legitimate and were approved.
- Approximately 29% of applications were found to be incomplete, so approval of those applications is pending additional information from the applicants.
- Approximately 24% of the applications were declined and are undergoing further review by the York County Office of District Attorney, especially as 85% are duplicate registrations requests.
The York County BOE added:
“For every eligible voter whose application remains under review, they can still vote in-person on Election Day by provisional ballot. Those provisional ballot votes will then be set aside on Election Day and will not be counted until the questions related to their registration are resolved.”
