VICTORY: We Just Won a Supreme Court Case That Protects Your Mail-in Ballot
About this episode
Marc Elias discusses the Supreme Court's ruling on mail-in ballots and its implications for voting rights.
Democracy Docket founder and voting rights attorney Marc Elias spent years litigating Watson v. Republican National Committee from trial court all the way to the Supreme Court — despite plenty of people telling him he couldn't win. In this video, he breaks down the court's 5-4 ruling rejecting the RNC's effort to throw out mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day but received afterward. He also explains why every state should now adopt this rule and what you can do to make that happen.
