SCOTUS Mail Voting Ruling Is Manufactured Chaos

“In November, we should be able to have elections that are free, fair, and secure. But it will take a lot of work between now and then. We saw that for sure this week. On Monday, the Supreme Court made headlines and sowed confusion, but it did not change much. Here’s what you should know. Earlier this year, Trump signed an executive order to upend mail voting. That is the way 1 in 3 Americans vote. Trump purported to order the US Postal Service to refuse to deliver lawfully cast ballots unless the voter is on a list (which doesn’t exist yet) created by each state and sent to the post office for checking against mail ballots. It’s absurd. And, no surprise, it’s illegal.” (08/25/26)
