A judge of the United States Supreme Court on Friday offered President Donald Trump a temporary partial victory in Pennsylvania in his decision that ballots received by mail after November 3 in the state be treated separately from other ballots, reports AFP .
However, the conservative magistrate Samuel Alito has not ordered to stop the counting of these ballots as the Republican side of the president wants, which cannot afford to lose in this key state if it wants a new term in the White House.

Donald Trump continues to accuse the use of the vote by mail, accusing this method without evidence that it has generated widespread electoral fraud.

Pennsylvania election law allows ballots to be counted through Tuesday, November 3, and to arrive within three days of the election.
Judge Alito’s decision confirms the pre-electoral order of the local authorities to count these ballots separately so that they can withdraw them in their entirety if they are invalidated.

The request was made by the Pennsylvania Republican Party, which considers these votes invalid (about 4,000 votes according to CNN) largely in favor of Democratic candidate Joe Biden.
The measure ordered by Judge Alito is conservative, pending examination of the case by the Supreme Court, in which conservative magistrates currently have a solid majority.
