Judge Blocks Trump’s Mail Voting Rule | Global News

A federal judge in Washington, D.C., has halted the U.S. Postal Service from enforcing a Trump-era executive order that would restrict mail-in voting, citing serious risks to election integrity and public access. This follows a similar injunction from a Boston judge earlier this year — one the Supreme Court had previously sided with the administration on — but now the D.C. judge warns that without immediate action, millions of valid ballots could be disqualified. The controversial rules, pushed by the White House just weeks before Election Day, demand Postal Service approval for ballot envelopes and state data uploads — changes election officials say are logistically impossible to implement. A whistleblower’s warning to Congress and opposition from postal workers further underscore the urgency and controversy surrounding this pivotal legal battle.
