Judge Blocks Trump’s Mail Ballot Plan | Tulsa News

A federal judge has just extended a block on a Trump administration plan to overhaul how mail-in ballots are handled by the Postal Service — a move that could disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of voters as states rush to mail ballots ahead of Election Day. With North Carolina already sending out ballots and others poised to follow, election officials warn there’s no time to adapt to new rules. The judge emphasized that states must stick to their legally mandated timelines and can’t suddenly pivot operations. Despite the administration’s push — fueled by claims of fraud (even though Trump himself uses mail ballots) — no state has adopted the new voluntary system. After previous attempts were blocked by courts, this latest legal battle is heating up, with the administration preparing to appeal to a higher court — but time is running out before voters head to the polls.
