RENO, Nev. (AP) — A federal judge has again rejected a conservative voting rights group's bid to block the mail-in primary election now underway in Nevada as part of an effort to guard against the spread of the coronavirus at traditional polling places.
U.S. District Judge Miranda Du late Wednesday stopped short of dismissing the overall lawsuit by the Voters' Rights Initiative. The lawsuit argues that mail-in ballots are more vulnerable to voter fraud.
It's unlikely the federal court will intervene before limited in-person balloting takes place June 9.
