#ELB: Adam Unikowsky Obliterates Fifth Circuit Opinion on Mississippi Accepting Ballots Timely Mailed by Election Day That Arrive After Election Day https://t.co/IQ62FtUaZX
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit has reversed a previous ruling regarding Mississippi's election law, which allowed absentee ballots to be accepted up to five business days after Election Day. The court's decision mandates that ballots must be received by Election Day, aligning with federal law. This ruling has been characterized by some as an instance of judicial activism. Judicial Watch, which brought the lawsuit leading to this decision, has stated that counting ballots received after Election Day is unlawful. Additionally, there are indications that the Georgia Supreme Court may concur with this interpretation.
