The Republican National Committee (RNC) and the Trump campaign are suing Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar and other state officials to stop the counting of ballots that “are received up to four days after Election Day.”
“Nevada’s ballot receipt deadline clearly violates federal law and undermines election integrity in the state,” RNC Chairman Michael Whatley said in a statement. “Ballots received days after Election Day should not be counted — the RNC and our partners are suing to secure an honest election, support Nevada voters, and oppose unlawful schemes.”
According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, in 2021 Nevada Democrat Gov. Steve Sisolak signed into law Assembly Bill 321, which expanded mail-in voting so that now all registered voters receive ballots by mail.
