Trump administration makes third Supreme Court appeal to allow mail-in ballot restrictions
–
Neutral summary
The Trump administration on Sunday asked the Supreme Court for the third time to allow restrictions on mail-in voting ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. The request comes after U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani extended a block on the president's executive order until Election Day, ruling that it encroaches on Congress's electoral authority. In a 40-page emergency application, Solicitor General D. John Sauer asked the justices to immediately permit the U.S. Postal Service to stop sending mail-in ballots to voters in certain states. Some states have already begun mailing ballots, and election officials warn of potential chaos.
