A majority of justices on the U.S. Supreme Court expressed skepticism at arguments that state legislatures should be unbound by state constitutions in how they run elections.

Demonstrators gather outside the U.S. Supreme Court as the justices hear oral arguments in Moore v. Harper, a Republican-backed appeal to curb judicial oversight of elections, on Wednesday.

Voting rights activists rally outside the Supreme Court during oral arguments in the Moore v. Harper case.
