The Supreme Court on Monday allowed states to count mail-in ballots received after Election Day, rejecting a lawsuit brought by the Republican National Committee that would\u2019ve upended voting rules in more than a dozen states ahead of the November midterm elections.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a 5-4 ruling, authored by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, the high court held that nothing in federal election-day statutes prohibits states from counting late-arriving mail-in ballots.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe election-day statutes say nothing about ballot receipt, and we cannot add to the words Congress chose,\u201d Barrett wrote in the opinion. Chief Justice John Roberts also joined the court\u2019s liberal wing to form a majority.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a stinging defeat for election-security advocates, including President Donald Trump, who has long criticized the practice. Mail-in ballots have become a key target for conservatives following California\u2019s recent primary, where leftist Los Angeles City Councilmember Nithya Raman advanced to the November mayoral election after nearly a week of counting late-arriving ballots, locking Republican Spencer Pratt out of the race.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Supreme Court case centered on a challenge to a Mississippi law that allowed a grace period for mail-in ballots.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh dissented.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt opens up and fails to resolve a host of questions for state election officials and courts,\u201d Alito wrote in a scathing dissent. \u201cAnd it creates a serious risk of further undermining public confidence in our elections and our system of self-government.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before the case reached the Supreme Court, the Mississippi Republican Party and the Republican National Committee (RNC) sued the state, arguing that its law violated <\/span>federal statutes<\/span> enacted by Congress in 1845 establishing the Tuesday after the first Monday in November as \u201cElection Day.\u201d <\/span>In 1872<\/span>, Congress extended that requirement to congressional elections as well, <\/span>according to SCOTUSblog<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Trying to overturn the 5th Circuit, Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson asked the Supreme Court to weigh in. Watson argued to the court that the 5th Circuit\u2019s decision \u201cdefies statutory text, conflicts with this Court\u2019s precedent, and \u2014 if left to stand \u2014 will have destabilizing nationwide ramifications,\u201d <\/span>The Daily Wire<\/span> previously reported.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
