Summary
The Trump administration is racing to get a controversial USPS mail-in voting rule enforced before Election Day, arguing the Supreme Court must step in to override a lower court’s injunction — even though such appeals are rarely allowed. The rule, born from an executive order signed earlier this year, sets new standards for ballot envelopes and voter eligibility checks, sparking fierce backlash from Democrats and voting rights groups who call it an unconstitutional overreach that could cause election chaos. Critics warn states have months of planning behind them, and forcing last-minute ballot redesigns is untenable. Meanwhile, the Postal Service’s own online enforcement tool — rushed into existence in mere months — is plagued with technical issues, with officials now saying it’ll be ready next week. With midterms looming, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
