Statement summary

Six Republican secretaries of state and election officials -- Georgia's Brad Raffensperger, Kentucky's Michael Adams, North Dakota's Michael Howe, Utah's Deidre Henderson, South Dakota's Monae Johnson, and Kansas's Scott Schwab -- filed an amicus brief urging the Supreme Court to keep Trump's mail-in voting restrictions blocked, warning "late changes almost always lead to unforeseen consequences."
