A judge in Georgia’s Fulton County on Thursday dismissed a Republican lawsuit seeking to close absentee ballot drop boxes after normal business hours, according to multiple reports.

The ruling came in a lawsuit brought by Georgia’s Republican Party and the Republican National Committee (RNC), which called for ballots received after regular business hours—typically 5 p.m.—not to be accepted, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and WSB-TV Atlanta.
