North Carolina election officials said Tuesday that absentee ballots received up to 9 days after the general election will be counted if they are postmarked by Nov. 3.
The agreement, which comes a day after a judge extended the Wisconsin absentee ballot counting timeline by 6 days, could settle a lawsuit with Democrats pending judicial approval, according to Reuters.
Current state law requires absentee ballots to be submitted by 5 pm on Nov. 6.
The agreement, per WRAL, aims to settle a lawsuit by N.C. Alliance for Retired Americans, which argued that “North Carolina’s vote by mail requirements are burdensome and will force older voters to choose between protecting their health or casting a ballot they know will be counted.”
