## Resource

The Supreme Court just sided with Mississippi, ruling that mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day can still be counted—even if they arrive a few days later. This victory for mail voters undermines Trump’s repeated claims that mail-in ballots are rigged and his efforts to ban them. Justice Barrett’s majority opinion says federal law only requires ballots to be postmarked, not received, while Alito warned it opens fraud risks. Trump called it a “tremendous loss” and pushed Congress to act, despite using mail ballots himself. Voting rights groups hailed it as a democracy win, while GOP legal teams vow to keep fighting. The ruling affects over a dozen states with similar grace periods—and even as mail voting has dipped since the pandemic, it remains a key voting method, especially among Democrats.
