EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A federal judge removed a key legal hurdle for the Trump administration's mail voting directives following a recent Supreme Court ruling.
The administration on Thursday asked the justices to allow the U.S. Postal Service to enforce a new rule requiring states to provide lists of approved mail-ballot recipients and use unique barcodes on outgoing and return ballot envelopes. Under the rule, USPS would deliver ballots only to voters appearing on state-provided eligibility lists. ([Reuters][1])
The latest filing follows a rapidly changing series of court rulings over Trump’s March executive order on election administration.
