Seems to me the bigger news is that there's a week and a half until election day and they're not done verifying applications.

I mean per the state department numbers we are looking at less than 10k unverified ballots, with some counties not verifying the ballot until if/when it is returned... So I'd say things are going pretty well.
I just think it's funny/sad that these state reps couldn't do the basic research CBS did by calling local officials, and instead are trying to make a news splash which gets picked up by outlets like Daily Signal, which was founded by the overtly partisan Heritage Foundation.

Yep. This is why we can’t have nice things. Not being patient is one of the reasons we’re in this mess to begin with. Not to mention not a republican soul over 50 understands how a sql database works

This post was reported as misinformation. It looks like it is being competently refuted in the comments, so I am letting it stand.

"Per the state data website, Lancaster County has 8,962 non-verified online mail-in ballot applications.
However, according to Lancaster County Commissioner Ray D’Agostino, they only have 290 applications left to be verified. He said they verify an applicant before mailing out a ballot.
In York county, state data shows 8,962 non-verified applicants. York County Election Officials said they don’t have any non-verified applications pending. However, they’re not notified that a voter is deemed non-verified until the mail ballot is returned.
The Department of State told CBS 21, there are only about 7,600 ballot applications statewide currently unverified."
Outrage over a website that hasn't been updated quickly enough and amplified by a Heritage Foundation created outlet... yawn
