In Grant v. Belangia (August 18, 2026), the 4th Circuit held unconstitutional a South Carolina statute that allows all voters over age 65 to vote by mail but (like a few other states) lets voters under 65 vote by mail only if they meet certain qualifications like disability or being out of the county. The Court said this law “abridges” the “right to vote” on account of age (over 18),in violation of the 26th Amendment.
