Judge Blocks Trump’s Order Aimed at Using USPS to Restrict Mail in Voting In a recent court ruling, US District Judge Indira Talwani in Boston blocked part of Donald Trump's executive order aimed at tightening rules for mail in voting ahead of November's midterm elections.
The ruling underscores the crucial role that an independent judiciary plays in safeguarding democratic processes.
The Trump administration's plan to require states to provide lists of voters and adopt new balloting procedures before the US Postal Service (USPS) would make deliveries was seen as an attempt to restrict access to mail in ballots, a convenient option for many voters.
