(Reuters) - Trump said on Friday that the Supreme Court decision rejecting a Republican bid to block a North Carolina ballot extension was "crazy," saying in a tweet that the election should end on November 3.

Debates over how to count late-arriving ballots in America's coronavirus-battered elections have pitted Republicans against Democrats, with many Democrats arguing for extended deadlines to count ballots that arrive after Nov. 3.
