1:00Now PlayingPennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf says a lawsuit filed by President Trump's campaign to stop the counting of ballots in the state is "simply wrong."
Wolf tweeted that his state had over 1 million ballots to be counted. "These attempts to subvert, the democratic process are simply disgraceful."
Throughout the campaign, Trump cast doubt about the integrity of the election and repeatedly suggested that mail-in ballots should not be counted.
Vote tabulations routinely continue beyond Election Day, and states largely set the rules for when the count has to end. In presidential elections, a key point is the date in December when presidential electors met. That's set by federal law.
Several states allow mailed-in votes to be accepted after Election Day, as long as they were postmarked by Tuesday. That includes Pennsylvania, where ballots postmarked by Nov 3 can be accepted if they arrive up to three days after the election.
