## Resource

Trump shocks election world by ousting two Democratic commissioners and forcing GOP member’s resignation from the bipartisan Election Assistance Commission — a move he justifies as protecting election integrity, citing a Supreme Court ruling that expanded presidential power over independent agencies. The commission, which oversees voting system testing and federal election grants, now faces a leadership vacuum as midterm elections loom, with no immediate plans to fill the vacancies. The shakeup follows a prior legal setback on a controversial citizenship question and underscores escalating tensions over election administration at the federal level.
