Republicans are Losing the Vote-By-Mail Battle in Court



Former President Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans have switched their positions on mail-in voting so many times that it would give any voter whiplash. Whether they claim to support it as a valid voting method or disparage it as a vehicle for election fraud, the GOP lawsuits don’t lie. The Republican Party is staunchly anti-mail voting.

The Republican National Committee (RNC), along with GOP figures at the state level, have filed continuous lawsuits challenging states’ mail-in voting policies, trying to make it harder for voters to return their absentee ballots and rejecting large numbers of votes. Despite this clear push to pursue cases on this issue, Republicans are losing the vote-by-mail battle in courts across the country.




I
f they continue to lose most of their mail-in voting cases as they have this cycle then voters casting mail-in ballots won’t face additional barriers to voting. However, there’s still plenty of time for courts to issue decisions leading up to November, so voters must wait and see how the remaining cases unfold.
