Energizing Pa. Latino voters; Is Lancaster County's election office misleading voters?

View descriptionShare

Roughly 580,000 eligible Latino voters live in Pennsylvania — a number that could determine who wins the presidential race in the key battleground state. Organizers are working to energize Latino voters in Philadelphia.

Voting advocates say thousands of people currently incarcerated in Pennsylvania prisons are eligible to vote. The state issued new guidance ahead of next month's elections for prisoners wishing to cast a ballot . 

The two major-party candidates for state Attorney General have traded jabs over their experience and argued over who is best equipped to fight crime. But, the job has more responsibilities than that.

In a sharply worded letter to Lancaster County commissioners, Secretary of State Al Schmidt says county election workers had been delivering “an inaccurate description of Pennsylvania law” to voters -- misleading them about their eligibility to cast a ballot in the November election.

Vice President Kamala Harris is courting Republican voters uneasy about former president Donald Trump. She held three events in Pennsylvania and two other battleground states  with Liz Cheney, the Republican former Wyoming congresswoman who has vocally opposed Trump since the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.
