quote:

The Supreme Court on Thursday denied a Republican bid to block a mail-ballot extension in North Carolina, a day after rejecting a similar GOP effort in the key battleground state.

The court's three most conservative justices — Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch and Samuel Alito — would have granted the Republican request. Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who joined the bench Tuesday, took no part in considering the case.

The voting breakdown mirrored that of a similar Wednesday night ruling in which the court rejected an effort by the Trump campaign and North Carolina Republicans to reverse a six-day mail ballot due date extension.

Together, the two rulings represent a major blow for President Trump and his GOP allies and means that North Carolina mail ballots that arrive by Nov. 12 and aren’t postmarked after Election Day will be accepted.

North Carolina Republicans had asked the justices to effectively undo a state court-approved agreement to push back the deadline for the receipt of mail ballots to accommodate voters during the pandemic.

Man that’s one fricked up ruling. Can vote well after the outcome is known. No way fraud commences right?

How anyone can think this isn’t to commit massive voter fraud is astounding to me.

Kavanaugh ruled to deny the request to block the extension?

The only reasonable reaction left for Republicans is to crank up their own ballot harvesting to counter this idiocy.

If it's what I heard earlier today on the news, she felt like she did not have time to prepare the background for the case...

She's not very bright....ha.

As others said, why are any extensions being made. Like what everyone just found out this week that the election was Nov 3???? How long have they had to vote Absentee in all these states, people should have voted then. This is bs. The whole mail in is bs.

If Kavanaugh ruled with the majority, then her being involved wouldn't have mattered anyway.

The fact they admit this a major blow to Trump is admittance to fraud.

Democrats clearly know they can't win honest. They're championing clear efforts to commit voter fraud at every turn.
