New Federal Lawsuit Challenges Indiana Ballot Deadline
Last night, Common Cause Indiana and the Indiana State Conference of the NAACP filed a federal lawsuit challenging Indiana’s unjustifiably early deadline of noon on Election Day to receive mail-in ballots during the unprecedented COVID-19 crisis. The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana. The plaintiffs are being represented in the case by Chicago Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights, the national Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, and Indianapolis attorneys Bill Groth and Mark Sniderman.
