From article on The Epoch Times.

A Pennsylvania judge ruled in favor of President Donald Trump’s campaign on Thursday, saying Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar overstepped her authority to change an election deadline two days before Election Day last week.

“The Court concludes that Respondent Kathy Boockvar, in her official capacity as Secretary of the Commonwealth, lacked statutory authority to issue the November 1, 2020, guidance to Respondents County Boards of Elections insofar as that guidance purported to change the deadline … for certain electors to verify proof of identification,” Judge Mary Hannah Leavitt wrote in her order (pdf) on Thursday afternoon.

Nothing just yet, the Democrats will surely appeal, but a W is a W, especially in a lower court like that.

Do you have to ask for something to be sticked? Some features of the boards I do not know.

I don't think so, I think a mod just has to decide it's relevancy and impact. Winning a court case in a pivotal state that determined late ballots as invalid is FUCKING HUGE!

Where is this confirmed and how many ballots were cast at that point?

I don't know and article does not say, but it is the first legal step to potentially throw some ballots out.
