A recent Supreme Court decision has allowed states to count mailed ballots that arrive after Election Day. This ruling comes after a challenge led by President Donald Trump. The decision was made with a 5-4 vote, rejecting a Republican-led attack on certain state laws.

The laws in question, which are present in more than half of the states and the District of Columbia, permit mailed ballots to arrive after the election. The Supreme Court's decision will affect how these ballots are handled in the future. Further details on this ruling can be found through local news sources, such as KPRC 2 and Click2Houston.
