— The Supreme Court on Thursday declined to revive parts of a Republican-backed Arizona law that could have barred thousands of voters from casting a ballot in the November presidential contest or voting by mail.
The case is likely to be the first of many election-related disputes the Supreme Court will be asked to tackle on an emergency basis this year. The Republican National Committee, joined by state GOP lawmakers who supported the law, had asked the high court to step into the clash over election rules in the pivotal battleground state in a case that elevated non-citizen voting, an issue Republicans have tried to put front and center in this year’s campaign.
