SCOTUS Clears Way for Trump’s Mail Voting Executive Order

The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) opened a path Monday for possible implementation of President Donald Trump’s executive order restricting mail-in voting; it remains unclear how much can be put in place before the fast-approaching midterm elections.

The decision leaves room for additional court challenges that could further slow Trump’s order, and other similar cases have already been filed. The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) shared how it would implement the order last week; however, time is running short to impose major changes. North Carolina is sending out ballots Sept. 4 overseas and to military voters, and other states will quickly follow suit in just a few weeks.

SCOTUS' conservative majority didn’t decide the legality of Trump’s order, instead ruling that states who sued did not have the legal right to challenge it.
