The #pennsylvania supreme court has flip flopped on this issue several times in this election cycle. The whole thing is ridiculous. I ended up voting in person because there was so much uncertainty around which mail ballots would be counted. In person voting seemed to be the only way to make sure your vote was counted.
The worst part is that the date on the ballot is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is when the ballot is received. If it arrives late, the date on the envelope doesn't matter and the ballot will be rejected. That's why the requirement for dating the ballot should be removed.

The Bradley Foundation spent millions inventing these disenfranchisement schemes.
Georgia's "exact match" naming requirements that excludes names with spaces, hyphens, or special characters.
Wisconsin's spurious dating requirements.
There's hundreds of examples that the GOP has invented just for this purpose.
