Here's the news that our favorite news media (major newspapers, broadcast networks, cable news, etc) aren't covering. Why would they? It exposes their perfidy...

This is another accusation that will go nowhere in court. It's easy enough to claim something is illegal to people who want to believe it. It is quite something else to get a court to agree with you. So far the Trump team as failed in that miserably. We've seen similar claims before this election and they have fallen apart in court, most of them catastrophically.
To be clear there are all kinds of little things that people can piss and moan about in any election. Trump has gotten people all riled up time after time of falsehoods, it was inevitable that has he has sucked people down slowly in a fact free reality that this next step would be something most would follow him in.

SPC Kevin Ford - I am sorry you just can't see. Just speaking for Pa.: The Governor just doesn’t have the authority to change the voting laws, that is plain and simple. That our mostly Democratic State Supreme Court said it was OK because of the virus doesn’t make it right. It’s still illegal, some judges making political judgements just means they are hacks with power. If the judicial system keeps this up there will be fighting in the streets. People know right from wrong, our parents taught us that. I guess the problem today is too many parents not teaching their children right from wrong, they now teach win at any cost. MHO

Many people didn't think Trump had the legal ability to declare whatever emergency he wanted and then move around funds Congress didn't authorize (e.g. the wall), I know I questioned it. He got taken to court over it, he won in court and as it turns out he did indeed have such legal authority. I may not like that he did it, I may not think it's right, but it was legal. That's our system.
I don't know if you are a resident of PA, but if you are how you change it is you elect people who want to change the current laws. What power the governor has is dependent on the laws and constitution of the state. If you are not a resident of PA (as I am not) you don't have sufficient standing to change their laws.

All I’m saying is there is “right and wrong” and there is “Law”, and the two, baring some really screwy stuff, needs to be as close to the same as possible.
The odd thing in Pa. is the Legislature is Republican controlled. I guess that’s not surprising because there is a fair amount of Republican “Never Trumpers” (Examples: McCain and Romney). Another good point is when people on opposite political sides allow one another to violate laws of the Commonwealth, because of their petty dislike of a person rather that for reasons of substance, sooner or later it will come back to bite them in the behind; although it does seem the media always covers for transgressions of the Left.

Is it "right" that people's votes for president count more in some states than others? It is "right" that some people have to choose between going to their job and voting? There are all kinds of rights and wrongs in this regard and many of them are subjective.
As far as what you are thinking about (and I'm extrapolating this based on the article), I'd argue those would fall in the subjective category. Denying a legal voter the realistic ability to vote I'd put in the wrong category, but expanding things like deadlines, that seems a bit more subjective.
Giving legal voters more ability to vote (as long as they are indeed legal voters) seems to be falling more on the right side. The other question is does the governor have the legal ability to do so in an emergency? That depends on the laws of the state (case, statutory and constitutional).
