The Supreme Court has upheld the counting of mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day, in a 5-4 decision authored by Justice Amy Coney Barrett. This ruling preserves existing laws in many states that allow for the counting of ballots postmarked by Election Day, even if they arrive a few days later. The decision was seen as a relief by election administrators and a setback for former President Donald Trump, who has consistently attacked mail-in voting and called the ruling a "tremendous loss."
