Divided Pennsylvania House gives approval for audit of 2020 electionPittsburg Post Gazette, Nov 20, 2020

Democrats attacked the proposal, calling it unconstitutional, damaging to democracy and unnecessary.
Mr. Wolf issued a written statement by email during the debate, saying any audit done by this approach would be “incomplete, duplicative and unreliable.â€
The committee is expected to generate a report that is to include, for each county and for the state as a whole:
• For both absentee and mail-in ballots, the number of applications received, the number that were approved by the county board of elections, and the number returned by voters that were subsequently canvassed.
• The number of qualified voters who used provisional ballots.
• The number of applications for absentee ballots from people who were not registered to vote, but subsequently did submit a voter registration application in time for the election — and the same information concerning mail-in ballots.
• For each county, the date and time that the county board of elections began pre-canvassing absentee ballots and mail-in ballots.
Reviews of incidents with voting machines; of “any inconsistent treatment†of mail-in ballots received after 8 p.m. on Election Day; of any inconsistencies in the way counties processed “deficient†ballots; and of access given to poll watchers and “authorized representatives.â€
