Supreme Court Upholds Late Mail Ballots | Burlington News
Description
The Supreme Court just ruled that states can count mail-in ballots arriving after Election Day—as long as they were mailed on time—keeping grace periods intact and blocking last-minute voting rule changes. This decision upholds longstanding practices that help ensure timely ballot delivery, especially for military and overseas voters, and counters misleading claims about mail-in voting fraud. The case originated in Mississippi, where a state law allowing ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted up to five days later was previously struck down by a lower court. Now, the high court has affirmed that such laws remain valid nationwide.
