Anonymous
The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to overturn a federal judge's block on new mail ballot restrictions for the midterm elections. AP News reports this marks the third time the administration has appealed to the high court on this issue. A judge previously extended an order blocking the Postal Service from enforcing President Trump's executive order on voting rules.
Meanwhile, concerns about federal influence in elections are growing. Some Republican lawmakers have warned against direct federal intervention in voting procedures, raising questions about how far executive power should extend during campaign season.
