Trump's Mail-in Voting Order Faces Legal Challenges

  • Donald Trump signed an executive order banning the Postal Service from sending ballots to voters not on a list of documented citizens.
  • Republican election officials, including Al Schmidt from Pennsylvania, expect lawsuits to successfully challenge the order.
  • Critics argue the order is an unnecessary attempt to create distrust in the electoral process ahead of the midterm elections.
  • The ACLU and other organizations have already filed lawsuits against Trump's order, asserting it undermines democratic voting rights.
