March 23 (UPI) -- The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments Monday about mail-in voting in Mississippi and whether the state's ballot deadline is valid.
Mississippi allows mail-in votes to be counted as long as they are postmarked by Election Day, but opponents say that the business of voting should be concluded by the end of the federal election date. The case was filed by the Republican National Committee.
About 30% of voters voted by mail in 2024.
Fourteen states and the District of Columbia have extended deadlines for counting mail-in ballots that are postmarked by Election Day.
