New York Court Considers Absentee Voting Law Challenge
News summary

New York's Court of Appeals is set to hear a Republican challenge against the state's absentee voting law, which Republicans argue violates the constitution and could lead to voter fraud. The 2021 law, passed by a Democratic-controlled Legislature, allows for mail-in voting under certain circumstances and is claimed by critics, including Rep. Elise Stefanik, to undermine election integrity. This legal challenge follows a previous failed attempt to overturn the law in 2022 and a lower court's partial rejection of GOP claims. Meanwhile, the Republican National Committee is seeking Supreme Court intervention to enforce an Arizona law requiring documentary proof of citizenship for voters, arguing that a federal injunction undermines state authority. Lastly, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has condemned a ruling against his New York residency, asserting it undermines voter choice and violates constitutional rights. As election season approaches, these legal battles highlight growing tensions around voting laws and regulations in key states.
