State election officials could soon face a stark choice: Hand over voter lists to the Trump administration or risk losing Postal Service delivery for mail-in ballots. That dilemma stems from newly proposed USPS rules that seek to comply with an executive order President Donald Trump signed this spring to crack down on mail-in voting. If courts let the order stand, it would give the federal government an unprecedented role in elections — and could put even more voter data in the hands of Trump officials searching for supposed election fraud. The proposed rules lay out new conditions that states would...

The Maryland State Board of Elections is addressing fallout from the error caused by the state's vendor, which sent ballots to some voters that were for the wrong party affiliation.

A federal judge on Thursday cleared the way for President Donald Trump to implement his executive order tightening mail-in voting, slapping down Democrats’ arguments for now that federal efforts to police voter rolls with citizenship checks was illegal.U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointed jurist, ruled that Democrats failed to show they have standing at present to challenge the order or have suffered any harm that would warrant a preliminary injunction."Given that the Executive Order does not command Plaintiffs to do anything, and that no agency has yet acted pursuant to the Order in a way that could harm...

(The Epoch Times)—A federal judge on May 28 allowed President Donald Trump’s administration to implement an executive order imposing restrictions on mail-in voting. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, based in Washington, rejected a request from Democrats, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), for an injunction against the order. Absent an injunction, the federal government would compile lists of U.S. citizens and would coerce states into only allowing people on the lists to register to vote and vote in elections, even though the sources for the list are known to be deficient, plaintiffs argued in court filings. Nichols disagreed, writing...

President Donald Trump is weighing on an error in some mail-in ballots in the state of Maryland. The State Board of Elections confirmed the error that would lead some voters to receive the wrong party for the Gubernatorial Primary Election. As a precaution, the state is resending all ballots regardless of whether someone received the correct one initially. Now, Trump is addressing the error. Trump posted the following message on Truth Social: In Maryland, they sent out 500,000 Illegal Mail In Ballots, and they got caught! So now, they’re going to send out 500,000 more Mail In Ballots, but nobody...

A Virginia circuit court judge on Wednesday struck down the state's voter-approved redistricting amendment in its entirety, ruling that the measure was unconstitutional from its inception and that every vote cast in Tuesday's special election — for or against — is legally void. Judge Jack Hurley, a Republican appointee, entered the sweeping final judgment on April 22, granting relief to the plaintiffs on all counts. He declared the proposed constitutional amendment "void ab initio" — Latin for void from the start — and permanently enjoined state officials from certifying the election results or taking any steps to implement new congressional...

Gov. Josh Shapiro reacted swiftly to news that President Donald Trump had signed an executive order attempting to restrict voting rights, blasting it with a post on the governor’s social media pages: “President Trump can sign whatever the hell he wants to, but it won’t change the Constitution. The authority to set our election rules belongs to the states — and as Governor, I will protect your right to vote. That includes your right to vote by mail." Trump’s order would create a nationwide list of eligible voters and restrict mail-in voting, among other restrictions. Under the order, the Department...

President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order Tuesday cracking down on mail-in voting across the country, the Daily Caller learned first. The executive order will require the Secretary of Homeland Security to create a list of verified U.S. citizens who are eligible to vote in each state with the Social Security Administration’s help, according to a fact sheet shared with the Caller.

Washington — President Trump signed an executive order Tuesday requiring states to impose stricter mail-in voting rules and directing his administration to create a list of confirmed U.S. citizens who are eligible to vote in each state. The additional requirements, made without any action by Congress, are all but certain to face challenges in the courts. It's not clear whether or how the order will affect the midterm primary elections, which are already underway in many states. "The cheating on mail-in voting is legendary," the president said in the Oval Office ahead of the signing. He said requiring voters to...

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said that a legal theory supported by the Republican National Committee in a case related to mail-in ballots “imperils a lot of different things.” Jackson noted during oral arguments in the case on Monday that election practices have changed over time, which she said undermines the idea that there was ever a consistent practice across all states. “It's been changing throughout the course in a way that undermines the notion that there was one consistent practice first of all, or that Congress's law, the meaning of Election Day in the federal statutes, somehow was...

The Supreme Court appeared ready Monday to rein in one of the most controversial election practices still allowed in several states: counting mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day. During oral arguments in Watson v. Republican National Committee, the Court’s conservative justices signaled deep skepticism toward a Mississippi law allowing absentee ballots to be counted up to five days after Election Day, so long as they are postmarked on time. The case could have sweeping consequences ahead of the November midterms, especially in battleground contests where delayed ballot counting could once again fuel chaos, suspicion, and legal warfare. Mississippi is...

There's a reason reporters capitalize the words Election Day in their stories, why Election Day is on every American calendar, and why it is emblematic of a single day by which you must deliver your ballot to the vote counters. The problem is, a dozen U.S. states have all sorts of cockamamie rules for when voters must get their ballots into the elections office, and it turns out that Election Day is not that day. On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court appeared to be leaning in favor of making Election Day great again — or at least making it a...

The Supreme Court‘s conservative majority sounds skeptical of state laws that allow the counting of late-arriving mail ballots, a persistent target of President Donald Trump. The court heard arguments in a case from Mississippi that could also affect voters in 13 other states and the District of Columbia, which have varying grace periods for mail ballots. The decision may also impact an additional 15 states that have more forgiving deadlines for ballots from military and overseas voters. A ruling is expected by late June, early enough to govern the counting of ballots in the 2026 midterm congressional elections. What to...

🚨 JUST IN: Hakeem Jeffries is FUMING after the Supreme Court handed Republicans a BIG WIN. The Court ruled states can challenge the counting of late mail-in ballots submitted up to TWO WEEKS after Election Day. Jeffries melts down: “They will PREVENT a FREE AND FAIR ELECTION in 2026! Or they’d LOSE!” Translation: If Democrats can’t count ballots forever, they panic. If elections have rules, they scream. If fraud gets challenged, they cry “democracy.” Secure elections terrify them. Deadlines terrify them. Transparency terrifies them. CRY MORE.

The Supreme Court handed a crushing blow to the radical left’s ballot-harvesting machine on Wednesday. In a stunning 7-2 decision, the High Court ruled that Republican Congressman Mike Bost (R-IL) has the legal standing to challenge Illinois’s unconstitutional law that allows mail-in ballots to be counted up to 14 days after Election Day. This ruling reverses the Seventh Circuit and sends the case back to the lower court—where Illinois’ late-ballot scheme will now be evaluated on the merits This is the game-changer we have been waiting for. For years, Democrats and their media allies have relied on “late-arriving ballots” to...
