    After several federal judges ruled against the state, it launched an emergency appeal at the Supreme Court, which is fielding a series of election cases this week.

    The Supreme Court on Wednesday granted Virginia’s emergency request to revive Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s systematic purge of voter rolls ahead of Election Day.

    The court's three Democratic appointees dissented from the order. The Republican-appointed majority didn’t explain its reasoning, nor did the dissenters, which isn’t unusual in emergency litigation.

    The Republican win from the Roberts Court follows Tuesday’s nearly unanimous rejection of former independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s attempt to get off ballots in battleground states Wisconsin and Michigan, which he wanted to do to help Republican Donald Trump’s campaign.

    The justices are also expected to rule soon on an emergency bid from Republicans to block provisional ballots in Pennsylvania. The impending decision in the case from thatswing state could provide a fuller picture of how the court is handling litigation in this election, which could be a close one between Trump and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

    A federal judge on Friday had blocked Virginia’s program, citing the National Voter Registration Act. That federal law bars states from systematically removing ineligible voters within 90 days of a federal election. Virginia argued to the justices that the law doesn’t apply to removing noncitizens and that its removal process is individualized, not systematic.

    I had to set aside my personal business selling, and I might even have to dissolve my LLC.

    I wouldn’t be able to ever make a salary on my own like I do working for this esteemed gentleman.
