Federal appeals court says MN (Minnesota) cannot count ballots after Election night. A Potential win for Trump.

I thought they just had to keep them separate - haven’t seen a ruling on not counting them.

Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon announced Friday that his office will not appeal the decision handed down by federal court this week. An Eighth Circuit panel ruled Thursday evening that election officials must "segregate" Minnesota ballots received after Election Day.
The decision is a victory for local GOP groups, who sought to challenge Minnesota's extended Nov. 10 absentee ballot deadline.

"In consultation with the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, we have decided not to seek a stay of the 8th Circuit decision at the US Supreme Court. We disagree with the court's decision, and there may be cause for litigation later. While Minnesota will comply with the 8th Circuit's ruling to segregate the ballots received after November 3, we need to emphasize that there is no court ruling yet saying those ballots are invalid. We absolutely reserve the right to make every argument after Election Day that protects voters. For now, our focus is to make sure that every Minnesota voter knows to cast their ballot by 8 p.m. on November 3, and that every ballot legally cast is counted."
