RNC Forces Centre County, PA to Keep Counting Ballots All Night After Officials Planned to Stop

The Republican National Committee (RNC) forced officials in Centre County, Pennsylvania, to continue counting ballots throughout the night, countering a plan by local election officials to halt the count, a move some feared could mirror the late-night disruptions seen during the controversial 2020 election.

The RNC’s legal team quickly intervened, arguing that the decision was in direct violation of state law, which mandates continuous counting of ballots.

After the RNC threatened legal action, officials agreed to resume counting, ensuring that all ballots cast by Pennsylvania voters are processed without delay.

RNC Chairman Michael Whatley wrote on X:

A legal victory in Pennsylvania:

Centre County officials were planning to stop counting ballots throughout the night in violation of state law.

We threatened to sue — and that was enough. Officials agreed to continue the count as required.

Our attorneys will continue fighting to quickly eliminate issues at the polls as they arise!
