HARRISBURG, Pa. — Another Pennsylvania county targeted for an Arizona-style “forensic investigation” of the 2020 presidential election being pushed by former President Donald Trump is raising strong objections to a sweeping demand for access to its voting equipment and records.

York County’s three commissioners — two Republican and one Democrat — wrote this week to the Republican state lawmaker seeking the information and raised questions about the legality of his demand and the cost to the county.

The commissioners also pointed to the likelihood that its voting machines would be decertified. Commissioners in rural Republican-controlled Tioga County have expressed similar concerns.

Philadelphia also received Mastriano’s request, but hasn’t formally responded.
