The U.S. Supreme Court declined to review a Texas election law that permits voters aged 65 and older to use mail-in ballots without an excuse, while requiring younger voters to justify their need for mail-in voting. This decision came after a legal challenge by Texas Democrats aiming to expand no-excuse mail-in ballots to voters under 65 was rejected by the Supreme Court. The law was alleged to discriminate based on age, but the Court upheld it, stating that voters under 65 must provide justification for mail-in voting.
