A federal judge on Dec.24 approved of a deal struck between the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) and civil rights groups that would treat absentee ballots as express mail ahead of Georgia’s critical runoff election on Jan. 5.

The organization agreed to treat ballots as express mail if they were still in a processing plant in the three days before the election, according to the court documents (pdf).
