- Mississippi’s mail-in voting law was upheld this summer by the U.S. Supreme Court, voting 5-4 to maintain the 5-day window for counting mail-in ballots after Election Day. Meanwhile, President Trump has issued an executive order requiring the Dept. of Homeland Security to compile lists of eligible voters in each state, and calling on the U.S. Postal Service not to deliver ballots cast by people not on those lists. Lower courts have blocked this effort, and now the Supreme Court must decide. Host Wilson Stribling welcomes Professor Matt Steffey of MC School of Law to discuss the constitutional issues at play. Then Republican Lucien Smith and Democrat Brandon Jones join Wilson for a lively roundtable segment on the politics of election law.
@ISSUE airs Monday evenings at 5 p.m. on MPB Think Radio. You can also listen on the MPB app or subscribe to the @ISSUE podcast for extended versions of our interviews and roundtable discussions.
