BREAKING: The 5th Circuit Court just ruled that ballots MUST be received by Election Day and any state laws that allow them to be received and counted after Election Day violate federal law

THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING. I kid you not.

"Congress statutorily designated a singular "day for the election" of members of Congress and the appointment of presidential electors. Text, precedent, and historical practice confirm this "day for the election" is the day by which ballots must be both cast by voters and received by state officials. Because Mississipppi's statute allows ballot receipt up to five days after the federal election day, it is preemted by federal law. We reverse the district court's contrary judgment and remand for further proceedings."

Because this is a decision by one of the highest courts in the nation, it impacts elections EVERYWHERE.

The joy I'm feeling right now is unbelievable. This one decision has done more to restore election integrity than anything I've ever seen. God bless the 5th Circuit.
