USPS rushed ballot portal under Trump order, whistleblower says

TL;DR Summary
A whistleblower alleges the Postal Service pushed the Federal Ballot Mail Portal forward to comply with a Trump order, arguing rushed development and inadequate testing could risk millions of voters’ ballots due to a strict “zero-error” rule. Boston Judge Talwani briefly blocked full implementation with a restraint order, while the Supreme Court allowed some steps to proceed but did not rule on the program’s legality. The report places the controversy in the broader context of ongoing election-law battles and heightened attention to mail voting since 2020.
