Nevada, Texas, and New York are among the states that allow mail ballots to be counted for a certain period after the election, as long as they're postmarked by Election Day.

But that's been thrown into flux.

The Postal Service says it's now more likely that your mail will be postmarked once it reaches a processing facility about a day after it's collected.

Nevada Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar says there are solutions.

Aguilar said the state must find a solution before its June primary.

The Supreme Court could decide this year whether states can count postmarked mail ballots that arrive after Election Day.
