Case Summary

This is a case about mail-in voting in the 2020 primary and general elections in New York. On May 1, 2020, then-Governor Andrew Cuomo issued an executive order that meant to expand access to mail-in voting by eliminating the need for voters to pay postage for mailed ballots. Instead, the addressee (the voter’s local board of elections) would pay for postage on receipt. The order, however, created a legal “snafu” — New York election law requires absentee ballots to be received or postmarked by election day to be counted, but the Postal Service does not always postmark mail with prepaid postage. The New York primary election occurred on June 23, 2020, and the state Board of Elections directed local boards to count any ballot received by June 30, provided it was postmarked on or before election day. But, timely-cast mail in ballots would not bear a postmark designating them as such, and, under New York law, would not be counted.

Primary Election Litigation

Voters and candidates for office in New York. sued the New York City and State Boards of Elections, the Boards’ commissioners, and the Governor of New York in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on July 17, 202 . Represented by private counsel, the plaintiffs asserted under 28 U.S.C. § 1983 that this “snafu” would violate (1) their First Amendment right to vote, (2) the Fourteenth Amendment’s equal protection clause and one person, one vote principle, and (3) the Fourteenth Amendment due process clause. They also alleged that the postmark issue would violate related New York constitutional provisions, and sought declaratory and injunctive relief. On the same day that they filed the complaint, July 17, 2020, the plaintiffs also moved for a preliminary injunction directing the state defendants to count all absentee ballots received by boards of elections by June 30, 2020, whether or not such ballots had a timely postmark. The case was assigned to Judge Analisa Torres.

On July 23, 2020, the district court granted the motion to intervene of two additional candidates for office in New York. 2020 WL 4261172. These plaintiff-intervenors requested injunctive relief for the New York City board of elections and its commissioners to count mail-in ballots received by the June 30 deadline regardless of whether the ballots were postmarked.

The district court granted a preliminary injunction on August 3, 2020. The court first addressed procedural issues. The defendants disputed standing only as to the candidate plaintiffs and intervenors. The court found they had established standing, though, because the results of their respective races could turn on whether the “snafu” might invalidate otherwise properly-cast ballots. The court then dismissed the claims against the State Board of Elections as barred by state sovereign immunity — the commissioners, though, were proper defendants under Ex parte Young and the suit proceeded against them and the City Board. The court then turned to the defendants’ claims regarding the civil procedure rule that requires the court to join to a case every party necessary to afford complete relief and to dismiss the case if those parties cannot be joined. The state and city defendants each claimed a variety of parties — the USPS, all local boards of elections across the state, and the candidates the plaintiffs and intervenors were running against — had to be joined for the case to proceed. The court found that none of those parties were necessary for it to resolve this case, and that even if they were, it had equitable power to ignore them. Turning to the final procedural hurdle at issue, the court declined to abstain under Younger (the plaintiffs had initiated similar state court proceedings) because none of the circumstances that warranted abstention were present.

On the merits prong of the preliminary injunction analysis, the court found the plaintiffs had demonstrated a likelihood of success on two of their claims. The First Amendment right to vote claim triggered the Anderson-Burdick test. Invalidating timely-cast but unpostmarked ballots was an “exceptionally severe” burden on the right to vote. The state’s interest in imposing that burden, ensuring all ballots were timely submitted, did not justify the “overly restrictive” postmark rule. So, the rule was unconstitutional on First Amendment grounds. The Fourteenth Amendment one person, one vote claim also survived. The court found that whether a timely-cast ballot would be postmarked as such was “arbitrary” given heterogenous USPS practice across the city and state. In these circumstances, the “postmark requirement subject[ed] absentee voters across the state to unjustifiable differences in the way that their ballots [were] counted.” The court did not adjudicate the due process claim since circuit precedent did not yield a clear answer, and in any case the court could order the injunction because of the other two constitutional violations. The court found that the plaintiffs had made a strong showing of irreparable harm in the absence of an injunction, had demonstrated the balance of equities tipped in their favor, and that the public interest would be served by the grant of an injunction.

The court, however, disagreed with the scope of the plaintiffs’ proposed relief. The plaintiffs requested that local boards of elections count any ballot received for the June 23, 2020 election by June 30, regardless of any postmark. The court found that, given the reality of USPS operations ascertained during the preliminary injunction hearing, it was virtually certain that any ballot received by June 25 would have been cast on or before election day, so it was “pointless” to enforce a postmark requirement against them. But unpostmarked ballots received after June 25 were not as likely to have been mailed by election day, so the court did not require those ballots to be counted. 477 F.Supp.3d 19.

General Election Litigation

There was a second wave of litigation in this case relating to the November 3, 2020 general election. On September 11, 2020, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, updating the factual allegations to reflect intervening events and reasserting their original claims in light of the general election. The plaintiffs moved for a preliminary injunction on September 18, requesting the court to “(1) extend the [August 3] order to cover all upcoming elections; (2) direct the NYSBOE to require Local Boards to send out absentee ballot applications and ballots promptly upon request; and (3) direct the NYSBOE to require Local Boards to count all otherwise valid absentee ballots without regard to whether they are postmarked.” The plaintiffs alternatively sought an order for “the NYSBOE to require Local Boards to provide voters a pre-rejection notice for absentee ballots with a late or missing postmark, and an opportunity to cure the defect by affidavit.” Finally, the plaintiffs also sought permission to file a second amended complaint to add a candidate plaintiff.

On October 23, 2020, the court denied the plaintiffs’ request for a new preliminary injunction for lack of standing. Unlike in the primary election litigation, none of the plaintiffs had alleged injuries to their right to vote had occurred — some of the plaintiffs had not even decided if they would vote by mail in the general election. Therefore, to have standing, the plaintiffs would need to show that an injury to their constitutional rights was “certainly impending.” In the weeks since the August 3 injunction, the Boards of Election had implemented changes to absentee voting administration that reduced the likelihood that the postmark “snafu” would occur again. Specifically, voters could request absentee ballots much earlier than they could in the primary and could drop them off at designated boxes rather than mail them in. Additionally, local boards in the general election would notify voters with defective absentee ballots and provide an opportunity to correct them. Given all these changes, the court found, none of the voters had alleged a “certainly impending” injury. Since the plaintiffs did not have standing, the court had no jurisdiction to grant any of their requested relief. The court did, however, grant the plaintiffs leave to file a second amended complaint. 496 F.Supp.3d 842.

The docket is silent as to the parties’ activities between October 23, 2020 and September 8, 2021, save an August 2021 letter from the intervenors’ counsel requesting an order declaring the case moot. On September 8, the parties filed a joint letter of settlement. The next day, the parties submitted a proposed stipulated order of dismissal. The court granted it the same day, closing the case.
