Election Day hearings will be conducted remotely, the Administrative Office of the Courts announced earlier  in a notice to the bar. The notice outlines county-specific logistical details on court locations being used for election hearings and non-court locations to support election hearings, including Boards of Elections and other county facilities. Each location is expected to follow the COVID-19 protocols for all court staff and members of the public, including the wearing of face masks, social distancing, and use of plexiglass or other barriers.

Courthouses will be open to any voter who appears in person on an election challenge, and county personnel will be prepared to direct a voter who appears at the courthouse to the appropriate location to participate in a remote proceeding. Accommodations for participation in virtual hearings will be available from the voting locations.
