Supreme Court tests election rules and executive power
The Court's 6-3 stay permits North Carolina to use the modified SAVE database for citizenship verification before the November 3 election, while implementation, error rates, provisional ballots, privacy, and disenfranchisement challenges remain unresolved. A Florida ruling limiting Congress's power to criminalize noncitizen voting adds another major election-law dispute likely to be appealed, while the new term brings immigration, detention, climate, firearms, voting, and emergency-docket controversies.
