Supreme Court Lets Trump Ballot Order Stand | Seattle News
Description
The Supreme Court just cleared the way for President Trump’s mail-in ballot overhaul, letting 23 states’ efforts to block it fall by the wayside — even though a lower court had paused the move. The majority sided with the administration, calling the injunction harmful, but left room for future legal challenges over whether this executive order is constitutional. The plan, rolled out in March, aims to redesign ballot envelopes with barcodes and voter data collection — a move the Postal Service finalized despite earlier federal judge rulings that called it an emergency. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson strongly opposed the decision, warning it injects chaos into elections just weeks away. With the case heading back to a lower court and election day looming, the legal battle over federal control of state elections isn’t over — it’s just heating up.
