My Dumb State: South Carolina Attorney General Doesn't Like Supreme Court Ruling Of Mail-In Ballots Received Window

Jul 1, 2026 06:26 PM EDT, Wed

South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson should know South Carolina’s election law. He’s held the office for sixteen years. He knows that South Carolina.

One the one hand, he supports states sovereign rights to control their own elections. One the other hand, he supports Trump federal takeover of states elections during Federal elections; which happens every two years.

Wilson can’t have it both ways.

• The Supreme Court defended mail-in voting. That won’t stop Trump.

Attorney General Alan Wilson responds to U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on mail-in ballots - South Carolina Attorney General

JUN 29, 2026

(COLUMBIA, S.C.) – Attorney General Alan Wilson released the following statement regarding the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on mail-in ballots:

“Today’s decision in Watson v. RNC is deeply disappointing. By allowing states to count mail-in ballots received after Election Day, the Court has undermined confidence in our elections and validated the kind of election practices that have eroded public trust in states like California and New York.

Election Day should mean Election Day. The American people deserve timely, secure, and transparent elections where every lawful vote is counted and the results are final.

As Attorney General, I have fought for election integrity by defending South Carolina’s Voter ID law, supporting the SAVE Act, and standing up for commonsense election safeguards. I will never stop fighting to protect free, fair, and secure elections for the people of South Carolina.”
