Trump again appeals to Supreme Court on mail-voting restrictions with midterm elections looming
- On Thursday, the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to lift a temporary block on new Postal Service rules requiring federal review of mail ballot envelopes and voter data before the November 3 election.
- President Donald Trump issued an executive order in March requiring states to use a federal portal for voter information and USPS-approved envelopes, citing a need to combat voter fraud.
- Boston-Based U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani blocked the rule citing an "impossible" timeline, while an anonymous whistleblower warned the portal was developed through a "rushed, chaotic, and fundamentally flawed" process.
- North Carolina began sending out ballots on Friday as required by state law, while State Attorney General Jeff Jackson warned that sudden restrictions could "throw our election into chaos."
- The Supreme Court requested a response by September 8, as legal experts debate whether the executive branch can dictate state election administration practices for the November 3 general election.
