Supreme Court Upholds Late Mail Ballots | Roanoke News

The Supreme Court just ruled that states can count mail-in ballots arriving a few days after Election Day — a major win for 14 states and thousands of voters, especially those in remote or overseas communities. The decision, led by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, shuts down Republican National Committee’s lawsuit against Mississippi and reaffirms that timely postmarked ballots are legal — avoiding last-minute election chaos. Despite the ruling, Trump is pushing his “Save America Act” to impose stricter voting rules, even as courts block his efforts. This decision is especially vital for places like Alaska, where geography and weather make timely delivery impossible — ensuring every legally cast vote still counts.
