Trader consensus implies a 67.5% chance the Supreme Court will bar counting mail ballots received after Election Day, fueled by recent litigation in battleground states like Pennsylvania. On October 22, SCOTUS denied a Republican emergency application, allowing county boards to count ballots postmarked by November 5 but arriving up to three days late, per a state court ruling. However, the conservative majority's prior stance—rejecting Pennsylvania's 2020 deadline extension—bolsters Yes positioning, as GOP appeals continue amid tight polls. With Election Day on November 5, potential post-election challenges in swing states sustain elevated odds, highlighting procedural risks in mail voting rules.
