Supreme Court's 5th Circuit Ruling on Absentee Ballots Comes 13 Days Before Election

The Supreme Court has delivered a significant ruling just 13 days before the upcoming election. The 5th Circuit Court's decision mandates that absentee ballots must arrive by Election Day to be counted, potentially affecting hundreds of thousands of mail ballots in nearly 20 states. This ruling could have far-reaching implications if adopted by other circuits or courts. The court emphasized that early voting remains permissible for now.

The 5th Circuit’s false pose of modesty masks the radical, destabilizing implications of its opinion tonight: that hundreds of thousands of mail ballots in nearly 20 states are illegal and must be nullified. A partisan firebomb 11 days before the election. https://t.co/JXfBBvC7xS

A BIG ONE: This 5th Circuit decision that federal law requires ballots arrive by Election Day to be counted could have huge implications--IF it takes effect this year and IF other circuits/courts were to adopt its rationale. w/@kyledcheney @ZachMontellaro https://t.co/jYiaXZXqpP

Potentially the most consequential court ruling of this election cycle...and beyond. https://t.co/Uv2yZ4J66U
