What happened?

  1. The Supreme Court voted 6-3 to grant the Trump administration's request for emergency relief, lifting a lower-court injunction that blocked portions of the mail-voting executive order in 23 Democratic-led states and the District of Columbia.
  2. The Court explicitly stated that its disposition does not mean implementation measures will necessarily be lawful, leaving the merits unresolved.
