The Supreme Court on Oct. 21 put on hold a lower court order that would have permitted curbside voting in Alabama in November.

The vote was 5-3, with the court’s three liberal-leaning justices dissenting. As is typical when the Supreme Court acts on an emergency basis, the justices in the majority did not explain their decision. It was not clear how many counties might have offered curbside voting, allowing people to vote from their car by handing their ballot to a poll worker.
