The campaign of former President Donald Trump on Wednesday won a lawsuit to extend early voting in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
"PENNSYLVANIA LAWSUIT VICTORY," Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley wrote on X. "We just won the Trump Campaign/RNC lawsuit against Bucks County, PA. We will now have extended early in-person mail-voting through November 1st — three extra days. We will keep fighting. Go vote! Stay in line!"
The Trump campaign sued Wednesday morning after long lines on the final day of in-person voting in suburban Philadelphia led to complaints that voters were being disenfranchised by an unprepared election office.
The lawsuit comes amid a flurry of litigation and complaints over voting in a battleground state that is expected to play a central role in the presidential race between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
In Bucks County, the Trump campaign lawsuit said people who were in line by Tuesday's 5 p.m. deadline to apply in-person for a mail ballot should have been allowed to get a ballot, even after the deadline. However, Bucks County's election office denied voters that right and ordered them to leave, the lawsuit said.
