Undated Mail-In Ballots

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court on Sept. 13 upheld a requirement in the key battleground state that voters must include accurate dates on the exterior envelopes of their mail-in ballots for the votes to be counted.

The split 4–3 ruling vacates a previous Commonwealth Court decision that had halted enforcement of the legal requirement under Pennsylvania law that disqualified mail-in ballots if they were undated or featured incorrect dates. The Commonwealth Court found that the date requirement was unconstitutional when enforced against voters who submit their ballots by deadline.

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court found that the Commonwealth Court did not have the authority to review that case because the plaintiffs did not include all 67 county election boards as defendants. Even though they included Al Schmidt, the secretary of the Commonwealth, as a defendant, that alone wasn't enough to give the Commonwealth Court authority to decide the case.

From Deep Fakes to Impersonation Networks

The Chinese regime is becoming more aggressive and more creative about how they manipulate Americans, Taiwanese, and other targets online. In one case study, a video began circulating on TikTok prior to Taiwan's presidential election this year showing Congressman Rob Wittman (R-Va.) making remarks about Taiwan that he'd never actually said. His original remarks about Ukraine had been artificially manipulated.

The Chinese regime deploys networks of fake accounts to give false narratives the semblance of organic popularity. They also pay popular content creators in the West to parrot propaganda. There have been multiple cases of vloggers creating videos whitewashing human rights abuses in Xinjiang while on trips funded by the Chinese regime.

Besides planting and amplifying desired narratives, a big goal of the Chinese regime is to sow discord and fuel polarization in target nations. In America, fake accounts linked to China have been found posting incendiary, polarizing content on both sides of the political spectrum. Watch the full story here›

CULTURE
Poems for Every Man
Poems for Every Man
Does poetry strike you as elitist or inaccessible? It's a common misconception, but poetry is actually for everyone. It offers fresh perspectives on the ordinary and the profound.

Great poets have a unique ability to see and express the world's beauty and mystery. They help us see what we might overlook. Poetry sharpens our vision, making familiar sights extraordinary again. Poems like Robert Hayden's ""Those Winter Sundays"" awaken us to the often-overlooked sacrifices of fathers, while "God's Grandeur" by Gerard Manley Hopkins remind us of nature's enduring vitality.

By drawing us into these deeper meanings, poetry grounds us, restoring our sense of wonder and connection. Poetry isn't just for scholars—it's a way to live more fully, break through routines, and see the world anew. No matter your age or education level, there's a poem out there for you.
