Supreme Court to put a hold on a court ruling in the battleground state that extends the deadline in November’s election to receive and count mailed-in ballots.Republicans, including President Donald Trump’s campaign, have opposed such an extension, arguing that it violates federal law that sets Election Day as the first Tuesday in November and that such a decision constitutionally belongs to lawmakers, not the court.FULL COVERAGE: 2020 ELECTIONRepublicans also object to a portion of the state court’s ruling that orders counties to count ballots that arrive during the three-day extension period even if.
