The Georgia Supreme Court on Monday night reversed a lower-court ruling to extend the absentee ballot deadline in Cobb County, one of the swing state’s top battleground counties, after election officials there admitted to not sending out more than 3,000 ballots on time.

“The Cobb County Board of Elections and Registration (the ‘Board’) may count only those absentee ballots received by the statutory deadline of 7:00 p.m. on Election Day, November 5, 2024,” wrote Georgia‘s highest court in its Nov. 4 ruling.
