President Donald Trump has long criticized states that take weeks to count their ballots after Election Day .

Many states allow mailed ballots to be counted even if they arrive after the election.

The Supreme Court last month said it would consider whether a challenge in Illinois can proceed in a case.

At least three states have eliminated a grace period for receiving mailed ballots.

Assemblyman Marc Berman introduced legislation that would keep the state's 30-day certification period but require county election officials to finish counting most ballots within 13 days after the election.

Los Angeles County’s chief election official told Congress in May that his team counted nearly 97% of the 3.8 million ballots cast within a week of Election Day in 2024 .
