Court Allows USPS to Push Ballot-Barcode Rule Amid Mail-In Voting Debate

TL;DR Summary
A U.S. appeals court temporarily lets the Postal Service advance a proposed rule that would require states to provide voter registration lists and serialized ballot barcodes before federal ballots are mailed—a move supporters say strengthens election safeguards. The ruling does not resolve the underlying lawsuit, but it gives federal officials a temporary win as litigation continues, with California’s mail-in voting footprint especially impacted by the development.
