2020 Election

For the second time in a week, a federal judge has ordered the U.S. Postal Service to live up to its responsibilities to process election mail in a timely fashion.

Here is a summary of how President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden compare on key issues ahead of the 2020 election, according to their campaign websites.

A federal judge ruled Monday that absentee ballots in battleground Wisconsin can be counted up to six days after the Nov. 3 presidential election.

The Trump campaign, which has filed lawsuits in several states over voting rules, had asked the judge to block a new Nevada law that calls for mail-in ballots to automatically be sent to all active Nevada voters.

The California senator is in a unique role following the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Friday. She’s Joe Biden’s running mate and a member of the powerful Senate Judiciary Committee, which would hold a hearing on Trump’s nominee.

The political battle is being quickly joined over replacing the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court.

If Trump is able to install his nominee in that seat, both sides agree there’s a better chance than ever that Roe v. Wade — the 1973 decision established a nationwide right to abortion — could be overturned or gutted.

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden says the Republican effort to jam through a replacement for the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is an “abuse of power.”

Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski said in an interview this week that she “would not vote” to confirm a nominee to the High Court ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

Hundreds of protesters gathered outside Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s home Saturday amid pushes to quickly fill the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat.

Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, announced on Saturday that she thinks Republicans should wait until after the 2020 elections to vote on Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's replacement -- saying she believed it was out of "fairness to the American people."

Lawmakers are increasingly turning to a new ally in their efforts to track foreign election interference.

With Election Day just over six weeks away, both parties were largely unified in praising Ginsburg as a leading legal thinker and advocate for women's rights.

Here are the presidents who have had the most justice appointees sit on the Supreme Court of the United States.

A judge has cleared the way for more absentee ballots to be counted in Michigan. Envelopes postmarked by the eve of the Nov. 3 election are eligible even if they show up days later.
