Pennsylvania Democrats quietly updated their website Thursday night after Republicans accused them of publishing “misinformation” on the site’s recruitment page, which appeared to be enlisting out-of-state poll watchers in violation of the battleground state’s election law.

The Republican National Committee sent a letter to Pennsylvania Secretary of State Al Schmidt earlier in the day Thursday, pointing out that the Pennsylvania Dems’ “Voter Protection” page on their website said that poll watchers on Election Day “must be physically present in PA for their shift, but do not necessarily have to be PA voters.”

That language contradicted Pennsylvania election law going back to 1937, which states, “Each watcher so appointed must be a qualified registered elector of the county in which the election district for which the watcher was appointed is located.”

“The misinformation on the PA Dems’ website threatens the integrity of November’s general election,” the RNC’s letter to Schmidt reads, explaining that the Democratic Party cannot be allowed to “flood polling places with unqualified out-of-state poll watchers.”

The Pennsylvania Department of State told The Post that poll watchers are “specifically defined as individuals appointed by candidates or political parties to observe inside a polling place on Election Day,” not outside.

In other words, Pennsylvania poll watchers must not only be Pennsylvania voters, but they can also only serve in the polling place in the county they are registered to vote. 

That’s a far cry from what Pennsylvania Democrats were telling potential volunteers, thus sparking Republicans’ complaints of “misinformation.”

In a statement to The Post on Friday, the Pennsylvania Dems clapped back at their Republican opponents.

“Our Party takes our democracy seriously, unlike the MAGA Republicans that are busy launching bad faith attacks on voters and our volunteers,” said Mitch Kates, PA Dems’ Executive Director.

“Poll watchers may be located inside or outside of polling locations, and outside poll watchers can be volunteers from any state,” Kates said. “We have always made this distinction in assigning our volunteers on Election Day.”

But Pennsylvania Democrats didn’t make this distinction on their recruitment page – until it was changed Thursday night.

Still, the Republicans are urging Schmidt, who was appointed by Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro, to correct the PA Democrats’ “misinformation and disinformation” on the state’s “Fact-Checking Election Claims” page, and order them to “cease and desist” from publishing inaccurate election information.

Both Democrats and Republicans recruit voter protection volunteers from out of state, and both parties are recruiting armies of volunteers to monitor polling places to make sure their team’s ballots are counted, and contest questionable ballots on the opposing side.

An Emerson poll released Thursday showed Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump tied at 48% support in the Keystone State.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign will stick to western states Friday as former President Donald Trump heads back to Pennsylvania for another rally.

Harris herself had no Friday campaign events scheduled as of early Thursday afternoon. But her husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, is slated to deliver remarks at campaign events in San Francisco and Aspen, Colo., Friday, according to the White House.

Emhoff has led the charge for Harris’ campaign this week, previously making campaign stops in New York, Michigan, and Idaho. Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, on Wednesday embarked on a two-day bus tour of southern Georgia that is expected to culminate Thursday with a rally in Savannah.

Harris and Walz were also slated to sit down with CNN reporter Dana Bash for their first major interview Thursday afternoon ahead of their Savannah rally. The interview is scheduled to air at 9 p.m. Eastern on all CNN platforms.

Harris is also expected to return to Pennsylvania on Labor Day for a campaign event in Pittsburgh with President Joe Biden, marking her ninth trip to the Keystone State this year. Ahead of her Pennsylvania visit, Harris will pay a solo visit to Detroit in what will be her sixth trip to Michigan.

Trump, meanwhile, will be back in Pennsylvania Friday for a rally in Johnstown where he is expected to speak around 4:30 p.m. at the Cambria County War Memorial. His running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R., Ohio), stopped in Erie Wednesday.

Trump last visited Pennsylvania in a trip to Wilkes-Barre two weeks ago, marking what was his second time in the commonwealth since surviving an assassination attempt at a rally in Butler last month.

Trump’s Johnstown rally comes days after the filing of a new indictment against him over his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Filed Tuesday, that indictment narrows the allegations in the wake of a Supreme Court opinion last month that granted former presidents broad immunity. In a statement posted to social media, Trump called the new indictment an “effort to resurrect a ‘dead’ Witch Hunt.”

Both Harris and Trump are next slated to be in Philadelphia on Sept. 10, when they will participate in a presidential debate at the National Constitution Center.
