A federal judge on Tuesday ruled against GOP congressmen from Pennsylvania who filed a lawsuit against the secretary of the commonwealth over allegedly lax requirements for military and overseas voters.
U.S. District Judge Christopher Conner dismissed the lawsuit, ruling that the congressmen "delayed too long to file their action, they lack standing, they have failed to join indispensable parties, and they have failed to articulate a viable cause of action."
"An injunction at this late hour would upend the Commonwealth’s carefully laid election administration procedures to the detriment of untold thousands of voters, to say nothing of the state and county administrators who would be expected to implement these new procedures on top of their current duties," Conner said.
