SCotUS can hear state supreme court cases on appeal of constitutional questions, unless there is an independent and adequate state law ground for the state court ruling.

There doesn't appear to be one, as this ruling isn't rooted in the vagaries PA law.

Edit: simple answer, there's no ground for SCotUS not to hear the case, so it's almost certainly going to the Supreme Court. The only way it doesn't is if 6 justices say no.

Edit 2: for anyone thinking that there is no US Constitutional question, please read Bush v. Gore (or check the wikipedia for a quick overview). There are questions of Constitutional review concerning the state case, including but not limited to due process and Article 2 plenary power.
