The Supreme Court on Monday declined to review a pair of challenges to Texas’s ban on paid voter assistance, leaving in place an appeals court ruling that upheld the restrictions. 



The decision is a setback for civil rights and voting rights groups, which argued the state law undermines a section of the Voting Rights Act (VRA) that establishes protections for voters who may require assistance with casting a ballot.
