In the key swing state of Pennsylvania, there's been a tangle of litigation over mail-in ballots that arrive on time to be counted but in envelopes that are missing dates handwritten by voters.
The fate of what are often called "undated ballots" may affect the state's final midterm results, including for a closely watched race for an open U.S. Senate seat.

..."If this new federal lawsuit over undated ballots is appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, any signs of how the justices would rule?
Three of the Supreme Court's conservative justices have signaled they're not convinced that not counting undated ballots would violate federal law.
In a dissenting opinion related to an effort to block the 3rd Circuit panel's ruling in Ritter's case, Justice Samuel Alito — who was joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch — wrote that it appears to him that the lower court's interpretation of the Civil Rights Act is "very likely wrong."
