Supreme Court Rejects Appeal on Pennsylvania Mail-in Ballot Dates; North Carolina's Jefferson Griffin Seeks to Exclude 60,000 Ballots

The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear an appeal from civil rights groups aimed at invalidating Pennsylvania's rule requiring handwritten dates on mail-in ballots. This decision means that the state's dating requirement will remain in effect for future elections. Meanwhile, in North Carolina, the Supreme Court has not yet decided on a contentious judicial race between Republican Jefferson Griffin and Democrat Allison Rigs. Griffin, who narrowly lost the election, is seeking to exclude over 60,000 ballots from the final count, but the court has opted not to fast-track this request. The North Carolina Supreme Court's decision to delay action on the lawsuit has raised concerns about the potential for a tie in the case, as opinions among justices appear divided.
