House Speaker Sam Smith, R-Jefferson, told reporters Wednesday afternoon that he’s heard stories about 90 percent of precincts reporting 90 percent voter turnout.

Because many county courthouses closed in the face of the storm, the deadline for handing in absentee ballot applications will be extended by one day in Pennsylvania.
By Melissa Daniels | PA Independent HARRISBURG — Pennsylvania will extend deadlines for absentee ballot applications after Hurricane Sandy forced many county courthouses to shutter in the storm.

The deadline for completed ballots remains Friday, Nov. 2 by 5 p.m. At a noon news conference Tuesday, Gov. Tom Corbett said that no decisions have been made about extending the ballot deadline for residents who may be mailing …
