Mail-in ballots will keep their grace period under new Supreme Court ruling
The U.S. Supreme Court upheld Mississippi's law allowing mail-in ballots to be counted up to five days after election day if postmarked by election day. The 5-4 ruling permits similar laws in 14 states and the District of Columbia. The Republican National Committee and President Trump opposed the measure, while voting rights groups supported it.
