    The United States Supreme Court on Monday handed an unanimous legal victory to the Republican National Committee, who challenged South Carolina election officials for removing a requirement to prevent voter fraud. In order to mail-in a ballot, a voter had to have a signature accompany theirs, verifying that the person who voted was actually the person who received the ballot.

    The High Court's decision overturned an Appellate Court decision that allowed the requirement to be removed. Lower courts were effectively removing this requirement, citing the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic.

    “Tonight’s victory is a significant win for South Carolina voters as the Supreme Court agreed that witness verifications are an important part of protecting the integrity of the vote. While Democrats continue to try and wreak havoc on our elections systems and open the door to fraud and ballot manipulation, Republicans are fighting back – and we are winning," RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said in a statement. "The RNC and its Republican allies will continue to meet Democrats in court to ensure that all Americans can be confident in our elections.”

    Unanimous decision. That’s amazing.

    I just heard that any ballots already mailed in will be counted... that’s right... will be counted anyway.

    The dems may have already stolen S.C.

    peace to you

    Frankly, I'm afraid that there is a strong probability that Graham will lose to Harrison, as he has had a massive $ backing, thus a LOT of publicity.
    Lots of sandlappers do not like Graham, but they missed their chance in the primary to dump him. Now is NOT the time to dump him.
