I know I have over 100 lawyers that follow my account.
Can someone point out where in the PA Election Legislation where it grants a provision for Curing Ballots in Pennsylvania?

As far as I can tell there are only 15 states that have legislation for curing ballots.
Arizona - Ariz. Rev. Stat. §16-550 Voters have until the fifth business day after an election to correct a signature.
Arizona - Ariz. Rev. Stat. §16-550 Voters have until the fifth business day after an election to correct a signature.
California - CA Elect Code § 3019 Voters have until 5 pm 2 days prior to certification of the election to provide a signature verification statement in person.
If a voter fails to sign the absentee ballot envelope, they have until 5 pm on the 8th day after the election to submit an unsigned ballot statement.
Colorado Colo. Rev. Stat. §1-7.5-107.3 A confirmation form accompanying the letter must be returned to the county clerk and recorder within eight days after Election Day to count.
Florida - Flor. Stat. § 101.68 Voters may cure ballots until 5 p.m. on the second day after the election.

Iowa - Iowa Code § 53.18(2) A voter may vote a replacement ballot until the day before the election or vote at the voterâs precinct polling place.
Massachusetts - Mass. Gen. Laws ch 54 § 94) Voter can submit a new absentee ballot.
Minnesota - Minn. Stat. § 203B.121 Voter can request a replacement absentee ballot on or before the date of election.
Montana - Mont. Code § 13-13-241; § 13-13-245 Voters have until 8 p.m. on Election Day to cure their ballot.
Nevada - Nev. Rev. Stat. 293.325 Voters have until the seventh day after the election to resolve the issue with a rejected ballot
New Jersey - N.J.S.A. 19:63-17 The voter may cure the deficiency by completing a cure form and returning to county board of election not later than 48 hours prior to final certification of election results.
Ohio - Ohio Rev Code § 3509.06 Voters have until the seventh day after the election to resolve issue.
Oregon - Ore. Rev. Stat. § 254.431 Voters must complete and return the certified statement accompanying the notice by the 14th day after the election for their ballot to count.

Utah - Utah Code Ann. § 20A-3-308(7) Voters must sign a new affidavit statement provided by the clerkâs office and return by 5 p.m. the day before the official canvass (seven-14 days after Election Day).
Washington - Wash. Admin. Code 434-261-050 Voter must sign & return a curing statement before election certification (21 days after Election Day). 3 days before certification, county auditors must attempt to contact by phone any voters with outstanding ballots to be cured.
And I have looked at every state, plus the District of Columbia and these are all the states that actually have legislation in place to allow for ballot curing of any kind. I post the election code for PA and it's just not there.
Aside from Alito wanting ballots segregated, there should be a challenge for curing ballots in any states that have no legislation in place for actually curing ballots that allowed curing to happen.
There is NO CURING of MIB in Pennsylvania. Mail in ballots cannot be opened prior to 7AM on Election Day.
People (democrats) were notified before election day they had cancelled ballots
It is very clear. GO READ THE LAW in Pennsylvania.

According to documents @kayleighmcenany has presented 370K Mail in Ballots in Philly County should be thrown out due to Curing and being opened prior to 7AM Election day and then mixed in with all other Mail in Ballots.
This has some legal traction to settle PA.

Okay let me explain what proof is, especially this ironical proof. This is an affidavit filed by a Democrat in the Trump V Boockvar case Docket Number: 4:20-cv-02078. Irony of it, it's in a motion to intervene for the opposition to Trump. I'll explain https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.pamd.127057/gov.uscourts.pamd.127057.31.8_1.pdf
This lady Natalie Price filed her affidavit along with a stack of others that describe under oath their voting experience for 2020.
I've marked key points
First problem is they admit they allowed curing of her vote, but there's more...

She was contacted THREE times on Nov 1st & 2nd, prior to the election, that her ballot had been canceled.
Not by any official on the county election board where her vote was by law to remain in a sealed certified ballot container, until Nov 3rd 2020.

She was contacted BY SOMEONE FROM THE DNC, that's right THE DNC.
So first off the DNC should have ZERO access to cast ballots beyond - on - or after the day of the election, yet here they are calling voters t illegally cure votes in PA.
That's a problem

This isn't isolated to just Natalie Price there are stacks of these on file on the actual court docked where they did the same thing each time.
It shows a systematic pattern of Voter fraud.
So when someone says where's the proof point them here.

This suit by Trump is to to prevent ballots cast in the seven named counties from being counted if a voter was afforded an opportunity to cure a mail-in ballot. It's not in the Election Laws for the provision of curing spoiled or disqualified ballots https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.pamd.127057/gov.uscourts.pamd.127057.1.0_3.pdf
Secondly they had to have opened the ballot prior to Election Day as forbidden by PA Law. In other words Democratic-heavy counties engaged in pre-canvass
activities prior to Nov 3, 2020, by reviewing received mail-in ballots for deficiencies, that's against the law
activities prior to Nov 3, 2020, by reviewing received mail-in ballots for deficiencies, that's against the law
They notified those voters in order to allow them to cure their ballot deficiencies by voting provisionally on Election Day or cancelling their previously mailed ballot &
issuing a replacement. They provided mail-in voters with the opportunity to cure mail-in & absentee ballot
issuing a replacement. They provided mail-in voters with the opportunity to cure mail-in & absentee ballot
The State election board however in Republican-heavy counties followed the law and did not provide a notice and cure process, in compliance with the PA Election Code to cast legal votes. Complete double standard.
Here's the complete docket for Trump v Boockvar https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/18618673/donald-j-trump-for-president-inc-v-boockvar/
These are the last two amendments to election code prior to Nov 3 2020
This is PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION CODE - OMNIBUS AMENDMENTS Act of Oct. 31, 2019, P.L. 552, No. 77
It doesn't provide any provision for ballot curing https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/legis/li/uconsCheck.cfm?yr=2019&sessInd=0&act=77

And
PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION CODE - OMNIBUS AMENDMENTS Act of Mar. 27, 2020, P.L. 41, No. 12
Again it doesn't provide any provision for ballot curing https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/Legis/LI/uconsCheck.cfm?txtType=HTM&yr=2020&sessInd=0&smthLwInd=0&act=12

Now the Democrats response is condensed down to, voters "should be" able to cure their ballots, and cite numerous civil rights scholars and groups opinions. https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.pamd.127057/gov.uscourts.pamd.127057.31.0_1.pdf
Here's the problem with "should be", when it comes to the letter of the law, and the US Constitution, there is no should be unless it's written in the wording of the legislation. The Constitution allows for no ambiguity when it comes to state "legislation" designates law.
So all these "should be" and "feelings" and focus group or civil rights "opinions" mean squat unless the state legislature has written it into the State Election code.
This is just one of many suits

Please don't get caught up with the s called legal pundits trying to conflate State curt Rulings with Federal court rulings.
The State suits were filed fully expecting to lose them
The Trump campaign had to exhaust all state level relief in order to advance to Federal court.

It's the Federal court that is the place where the Trump Campaign expects to win relief, and ultimately the SCOTUS. But you have to start down at the lower courts to exhaust the lower courts judicial remedy.
