Trump's Ballot Push Blocked by Supreme Court | Global News

The Supreme Court just blocked President Trump’s last-minute push to restrict mail-in ballots for midterms, delivering a major blow to his election strategy as voting began in key states. The administration had pressured the Postal Service to expand ballot distribution, but state officials resisted, citing time constraints and secure systems. Trump reacted furiously on social media, blasting the justices — especially dissenters Alito and Thomas — whom he called “legends” and accused of siding against him. This isn’t new territory for Trump, who’s long clashed with the court over rulings on birthright citizenship, tariffs, and more, claiming the judiciary is costing the country trillions. Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed the administration will comply with the ruling while still pushing for fair elections, noting Trump’s right to voice dissent — something he’s done before. With roughly one-third of voters relying on mail ballots, the court’s decision preserves existing state processes, effectively shutting down this round of federal interference.
