Supreme Court restores witness signature requirement for absentee ballots in win for GOP
(Worthy News) – The Supreme Court reinstated a requirement that South Carolina voters need a witness to sign their absentee ballots before they vote by mail.
The Monday move by the high court reversed most of a lower-court decision that had ruled that requiring a witness to sign absentee ballots created an undue burden for voters in the Palmetto State, according to the Hill. The order does not apply to ballots already mailed in or that will be cast within the next two days.
“For many years, this Court has repeatedly emphasized that federal courts ordinarily should not alter state election rules in the period close to an election,” said Trump-appointee Justice Brett Kavanaugh. [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
