And that's the way ballots should be cast and counted.
You know, Mississippi says that the stakes are really high here because throwing out ballots that may not arrive on Election Day themselves could really swing close races here.
Something like 16 states permit absentee ballots to be counted if they're received within a certain amount of time, as long as they're postmarked by Election Day.
And that's important because the U.S.
Postal Service has announced they may try to change some of those postmarks.
So this could be a very, very significant political case.
The U.S.
Postal Service said right around Christmastime that it may not postmark a piece of mail the same day that it receives it.
And that change could really affect how people vote by mail and whether their ballots are counted.
Yeah, let's start with the sports cases.
They involve challenges to the constitutionality of laws in Idaho and West Virginia.
In Idaho, a transgender woman wants to compete in track at Boise State University.
The Ninth Circuit Appeals Court ruled that Idaho's law that would ban that has violated the Constitution and the guarantee of equal protection.
The other case was filed by a trans student who wanted to compete in girls teams at her middle school in West Virginia.
There, the lower court also invalidated West Virginia's ban and basically said it violates a different law, Title IX, that prohibits sex discrimination in education.
The Trump administration here is siding with the states who had enacted these bans.
Yeah, that case involves a therapist, a Christian therapist in Colorado.
Colorado had banned conversion therapy for young people.
And this Christian therapist wanted to talk about it with some of her patients.
She says the state ban violates her free speech rights.
