A group of 10 attorneys general filed an amicus brief on Nov. 9 in support of a lawsuit from Pennsylvania Republicans and asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a ruling that extended the deadline for mail-in ballots in the state.
Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt, who led the amicus brief, said that the Pennsylvania Supreme Court had rewritten the law and encroached on the legislature’s authority when it ruled that mail-in ballots received a few days after the election can still be counted.
