Anderson, stating, "I am glad to see today’s unanimous Supreme Court’s ruling protecting ballot access. As argued by the amicus brief I joined nearly 200 colleagues in sending to the Court in January, our elections should be decided by the American people through our constitutional process, not unilaterally by unelected officials."

The ruling, which was supported by all nine Supreme Court justices, was seen as a victory for ensuring that electoral processes are upheld in accordance with constitutional principles.

Anderson marks a significant moment in the ongoing discourse surrounding election laws and processes, with implications that could resonate throughout the political landscape.
