Judge Blocks Trump’s Ballot Order | Chicago News

from Chicago News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A federal judge just blocked the Trump administration’s latest attempt to restrict mail-in ballots by forcing the Postal Service to only send ballots to people on a federal list. Judge Indira Talwani ruled that election rules belong to states and Congress—not the executive branch—especially with midterms just 90 days away. This isn’t the first time this order has been challenged; previous rulings blocking similar restrictions in over 20 states have already been upheld. Now, the administration is turning to the Supreme Court, but this latest decision adds another major roadblock to their efforts to alter voting procedures before November.
