Federal Court Says No to Trump's Mail-In Ballot Restrictions
The administration's plan to gatekeep the mailbox just hit a massive legal wall.
A federal appeals court basically told the Trump administration to step away from the mail. The White House tried to force the U.S. Postal Service to ignore ballots for anyone not on a specific federal citizenship list, but the judges weren't buying it.
The plan relied on the idea that the feds should manage who gets to vote by mail, despite Trump Donald Trump having exactly zero proof of the widespread voter fraud he keeps shouting about. The court ruled that the administration failed to make any case for interfering with election procedures, leaving the lower court injunction firmly in place.
It seems like the government isn't allowed to just decide who gets a ballot based on a secret list of their own making. Imagine if the DMV tried to run your private mail—yeah, that's essentially what they were aiming for.
