Republicans take voting cases to SCOTUS
* The Republican National Committee (RNC) asked ([link removed]) the U.S. Supreme Court today to block Pennsylvania voters from being able to cast provisional ballots on Election Day if their mail-in ballots are rejected due to a technical mistake.
* Virginia election officials asked ([link removed]) the U.S. Supreme Court yesterday to reinstate Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s (R) voter purge program that kicked naturalized citizens and other eligible voters off the rolls. The program is currently blocked by lower courts.

Voters should mail ballots by tomorrow for delivery by Election Day
* The U.S. Postal Service recommended ([link removed]) that voters mail their ballots by tomorrow if their state requires mail-in ballots to be received by Election Day. The Postal Service says it will continue to deploy "extraordinary measures" to accelerate election mail.

RNC keeps losing mail-in voting cases in swing states
* In a win for voters, the Nevada Supreme Court rejected ([link removed]) former President Donald Trump and the RNC’s lawsuit trying to toss certain Nevada mail-in ballots received within three days of Election Day. These ballots will be counted this year.
* The RNC and Michigan GOP appealed ([link removed]) a state judge’s decision that rejected ([link removed]) their lawsuit trying to disqualify the votes of certain overseas and military voters. The Michigan judge called the lawsuit an "11th hour attempt to disenfranchise" voters.

Since Jan. 1, 2023

Voting rights under attack in Arizona
* Pinal County, Arizona voters who go to the wrong precinct cannot cast ballots this year, the Arizona Supreme Court affirmed ([link removed]) . Pinal is the only county in the state that requires residents to vote at assigned polling places.
* Since 2020, far-right extremists have taken over Arizona’s Republican Party. And as the state prepares for a consequential election, it is the epicenter of election conspiracies, election official harassment and an all-out assault on voting rights. Read here ([link removed]) to learn more.

Texas Republicans target Harris County’s voter rolls
* Three Texas Republicans filed ([link removed]) a lawsuit to remove tens of thousands of voters from the rolls in Harris County — the state's most populous county and a Democratic stronghold — as voters are already casting ballots.

Philadelphia DA sues Elon Musk PAC over $1M swing state giveaway
* Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner (D) sued ([link removed]) Trump-supporting tech billionaire Elon Musk and his PAC over a giveaway that offers $1 million to a registered voter in a swing state who signs a petition.

Court hearing coming up tomorrow
* A hearing will be held ([link removed]) in a Nevada lawsuit challenging the Carson City clerk’s decision to reject nine voter challenges submitted by the right-wing group Pigpen Project. The plaintiff asked the court to order the clerk to investigate the challenges.
