The U.S. Supreme Court is set to decide on a key case from the Republican National Committee challenging states that count mail-in ballots arriving after Election Day, as long as they are postmarked on time. The dispute centers around Mississippis rule allowing absentee ballots up to five days late if mailed by the deadline. The RNC argues this violates federal law setting Election Day for federal races. Thirty states and Washington, D.C., have similar policies, but supporters of these laws warn a ruling against them could reject valid votes and shake trust just before the midterms. Mississippis Republican attorney general stresses ballot receipt and counting happen after Election Day without issue, as a state policy choice. A decision is expected by late June, potentially reshaping voting rules for midterms and beyond.
