The Daily Caller covers the Center for Election Confidence’s (CEC) recent joint brief filed before the Supreme Court in Watson v. RNC with partner organizations the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), Honest Elections Project (HEP) and Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections (RITE), which argues that federal law requires all ballots to be returned by Election Day.
“Congress for nearly two centuries has sought to promote voter trust and consistency by setting a single nationwide Election Day, HEP and three other organizations wrote in a joint amicus brief in the case urging the Court to strike down Mississippi’s law as unconstitutional.”
“Congress has not left the uniformity of a single federal Election Day to state exploration. Letting these unconstitutional policies remain will exacerbate inconsistencies and delays, lead to disenfranchisement and dilution, and foster mistrust in elections,” HEP, American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), the Center for Election Confidence (CEC) and Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections (RITE) added in their brief, which was filed in February.
The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear argument in Watson v. RNC on Monday, March 23.
