Nevada Supreme Court Allows Counting of Non-Postmarked Ballots Received Up to Three Days After Election Day

Oct 28, 2024, 07:53 PM

The Nevada Supreme Court ruled on Monday that mail-in ballots without postmarks received up to three days after Election Day can be counted, rejecting a Republican challenge to the state law. The court upheld a lower court's decision, stating that rejecting timely mail ballots due to postal service omissions goes against the strong public interest. This ruling is considered a significant victory for voters in Nevada and a setback for the Republican National Committee. Nevada is a battleground state and is among nearly two dozen states that allow mail-in ballots received after Election Day to be counted under certain conditions.
