How the call settles
The Supreme Court's decision in Watson v. RNC holds that ballots received after election day may not be counted
Our reasoning
NO on the research record because The Supreme Court decided Watson v. Republican National Committee on June 29, 2026, ruling 5-4 (opinion by Justice Barrett, joined by Roberts and the three liberals) that federal law does NOT bar states from counting mail ballots received after Election Day, upholding Mississippi's five-business-day grace period. That is the opposite of the predicted holding.. Applied stored rule: The Supreme Court's decision in Watson v. RNC holds that ballots received after election day may not be counted.
