South Carolina mail-in voting law illegally discriminates, appeals court rules

A federal court in South Carolina ruled that the state's rules for mail-in-voting violated the constitution last week. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling relates to South Carolina's mail-in ballot laws and certain allowances it makes for voters over the age of 65. Typically, voters looking to send mail-in ballots must meet certain criteria, such as being out of the country during the early voting period or being disabled.
