On October 29th, less than one week before Election Day, a three-judge panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that absentee ballots coming in after Election Day in Minnesota should be separated from the rest of the ballots. The ruling does not necessarily block the seven-day extension previously established through a consent decree; however, it calls for a separation of ballots in case they are later invalidated by a final court order.
