Supreme Court to Review Key Mail-In Ballot and Election Laws Cases
TL;DR
The Supreme Court will consider a challenge to Illinois law that allows mail-in ballots received up to two weeks after Election Day to be counted, in a case brought by Rep. Mike Bost. The case questions whether such ballots should be included in official results, amid broader debates over mail-in voting practices and election security. The Court's decision is expected by June 2026, but it is uncertain whether they will rule on the merits or just on procedural standing issues.
