WASHINGTON (CN) — The Supreme Court agreed on Monday to air out Republican grievances against mail-in ballots next term. In most states, mail ballots must be returned when the polls close on Election Day.

It’s hard to believe that we are almost halfway through 2025 and that it has been almost a year since the team at the Linde Center for Science, Society, and Policy at Caltech (LCSSP) officially launched The Caltech Election Integrity Project back in July 2024 with my last by-line in electionlineWeekly.
We originally intended for this program to conclude next month, but we have extended our research and dissemination of findings through at least the end of 2025 so that we can further engage with election practitioners and other election community stakeholders.
