In another blow to President Donald Trump's executive order targeting mail-in voting ahead of the midterm elections, a federal appeals court has refused — for now — to let the U.S. Postal Service carry out "unprecedented levels of involvement by federal officials" in nearly two dozen states.
The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in a 2-1 decision over the weekend favoring blue states led by California, left in place a lower court order blocking the implementation of Trump's late-March executive order 14399, "Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections."
