The Supreme Court faces a handful of election-related cases ahead of Election Day, but election experts said the justices are unlikely to upend voting rules so close to an election.
The justices on Tuesday dispensed with two of the four cases tied to the 2024 election in front of them — with possibly more cases on the way — and upsetting the status quo would go against years of practice by the court, experts said.
The court, without explaining its reasoning, rejected efforts in two cases brought by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to remove him from the presidential ballots in Michigan and Wisconsin. Kennedy, who suspended his presidential bid and endorsed Donald Trump in August, has argued that forcing him to remain on the ballot violates his constitutional rights and would confuse voters.
