The Democrat-led Luzerne County Election Board voted Friday to reject 142 mail-in ballots from a Donald Trump-voting stronghold in Pennsylvania after staffers screwed up the ballot processing.

The votes came from the 119th Legislative District, a portion of Lucerne County. This year, Trump received 90,370 votes in Luzerne County, while Vice President Kamala Harris received 59,966 votes. Trump flipped the county red by double digits in 2016.

But his 20-point lead in 2024 isn’t as large as it could be because 142 ballots were disqualified because an election worker mixed them in with others.........
