More than a dozen attorneys were in a Saratoga County state trial court Wednesday to present a myriad of perspectives on the New York State Republican Committee's lawsuit that argues a new law regarding the opening and tallying of absentee ballots within four days of receipt, for their inclusion in Election Night results, is unconstitutional.

The civil action seeks a declaratory judgment that the law authorizing absentee voting on the basis of fear of spreading the coronavirus violates the state Constitution.
