It is unclear how the judge can hold up certification.

The Pennsylvania Department of State certified the results Tuesday morning, and Gov. Tom Wolf sent the certification to the national archives.

Monday was the deadline for county officials to report election results to the state. Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar must then tabulate, compute and canvass votes for all races.

The Trump campaign is asking for an expedited appeal hearing, in an attempt to overturn a lower court ruling before the state certifies election results.

Gov. Tom Wolf will approve it, his office said.

The mail-in ballots could make a difference in the 45th state Senate District race, where incumbent Democrat Jim Brewster and Republican Nicole Ziccarelli are separated by a few thousand votes.

The Trump campaign revised the lawsuit; state lawyers said the revised lawsuit contains no “plausible claim for relief on any legal theory."

The ballots were found in two separate mail processing facilities and will be delivered to local election offices.

Pennsylvania emerged as a hot spot for online misinformation on Election Day. Facebook and Twitter scrambled to take down false posts about polling locations.
