Trump. Supreme Court rejects halting the counting of 20 thousand votes

The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld a lower court's decision allowing the counting of 20,000 mail-in ballots in California, rejecting the Trump administration's appeal. The administration argued that these ballots might be from non-citizens and should not be counted until citizenship is verified. California election officials dismissed this claim, citing logistical issues and the impracticality of identifying the specific ballots in question. Additionally, another federal judge ruled against the administration's attempts to control mail-in voting, stating it likely violates the Constitution's electoral clause. California's Attorney General criticized the federal appeal as a desperate attempt to undermine elections.
