Supreme Court blocks Native Hawaiian election vote count

From the Associated Press:

The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday blocked votes from being counted in a unique election that’s considered a major step toward self-governance for Native Hawaiians.

The high court granted an injunction requested by a group of Native Hawaiians and non-Hawaiians challenging the election. […]

The order blocks the counting of votes until at least the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issues its ruling.
