DOJ asks Supreme Court to block California ballot counting
Original: DOJ asks Supreme Court to block California counting disputed mail-in ballots
The Justice Department has filed an emergency request asking the US Supreme Court to block California from counting disputed mail-in ballots. The move escalates a legal fight over vote-counting rules in the nation's most populous state, and is likely to draw sharp reactions from election officials, voting-rights groups and state attorneys general as the case moves to the high court.
Why now: The emergency filing puts a disputed election procedure directly before the Supreme Court, raising high-stakes questions about ballot access and election integrity.
