Judge blocks USPS mail-ballot rules over authority and disenfranchisement concerns
TL;DR Summary
A federal judge blocked the Trump-backed USPS changes to mail voting, ruling the Postal Service lacks clear authority over elections and that implementing the rules could cause chaos and disenfranchise voters; the ruling is being appealed, with the administration seeking relief from higher courts as questions linger about the readiness of the new portal and the ability of states to comply before November.
