Democrat and Republican groups have filed more than 100 lawsuits this year over vote-by-mail rules around the nation as part of a legal battle that’s already shaping how millions of Americans can vote on Election Day.
Democrats and liberal groups dominate the battlefield with the backing of well-funded organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union, and high-profile law firms such as Perkins Coie, which is litigating vote-by-mail cases in 11 states. The party has 600 lawyers working on election-related cases nationwide, according to Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
