County commissioners voted 2-1 Wednesday to join a national and state Republican Party appeal of a Commonwealth Court ruling about the county’s election ballot curing policy.

The commissioners joined an appeal filed by the Republican National Committee and the Republican Party of Pennsylvania in state Supreme Court of a recent Commonwealth Court ruling that voters can cast provisional ballots if defects are found in their mail-in and absentee ballots.

The case revolves around two county voters, Faith Genser and Frank Matis, whose mail-in ballots for the April primary were rejected because they didn’t place their ballots in the provided secrecy envelope. The provisional ballots they cast were also rejected.

Leslie Osche, commissioner’s chairman, and Commissioner Kim Geyer voted in favor of joining the appeal, and Commissioner Kevin Boozel voted against it. Osche and Geyer are Republicans and Boozel is a Democrat.
