- Supreme Court begins new term with cases threatening voting rights and election access — The Supreme Court's 2025–26 term opens with multiple cases poised to restrict voting access and election administration. Two redistricting cases (Louisiana v. Callais and Robinson v. Callais) challenge Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act by attacking race-conscious redistricting even when it complies with VRA requirements. A case brought by Rep. Mike Bost seeks to prevent counting of late-arriving mail-in ballots postmarked before Election Day. A separate case challenges Mississippi's late-ballot law. National Republican Senatorial Committee v. Federal Election Commission, with Vice President Vance as a challenger, threatens to eliminate coordination limits between parties and candidates, potentially circumventing individual campaign contribution caps.
