Envelope containing voting ballot papers being sent by mail for absentee vote in presidential election
The Wisconsin Supreme Court has ruled Republicans do have standing to participate when state laws are challenged in court.
That decision could impact the federal ruling on the deadline for absentee ballots.
The Tuesday decision clears the way for Republicans to appeal a six-day extension for counting those ballots before the 7th U-S Circuit Court of Appeals based in Michigan.
It will decide if ballots counted six days after the Presidential Election Day can be counted as long as they are postmarked November 3rd.
Republicans want to go back to the previous standard of 8:00 p-m on Election Day.
