Mail-in voting restrictions now in effect, US Postal Service says

[RAMROD 117,643]

 

The US Postal Service (USPS) said on Thursday ‌that ‌new ‌requirements for mail-in ‌voting are now ⁠in effect as Donald Trump seeks to crack down on the practice. The move is expected to trigger a new round of legal challenges.

The Trump administration has sought to impose new rules requiring state election leaders to submit their voter rolls for inspection as part of a broader bid to increase federal government oversight over voting and elections.

The post office requirements stem from an executive order issued by Trump earlier this year, requiring the post office to refrain from delivering ballots for mail-in voting to registered voters deemed ineligible when compared to Department of Homeland Security and other federal records.

The USPS posted a final rule on ballot delivery on Friday. On Thursday, the service said it would be implemented immediately, applying to ballots for November’s US midterm elections.

Well, at least my handicapped MAGA Republican relatives who do mail in voting can’t. I mean, will be more difficult for them to go vote now.

And the relatives/ caretakers for those who voted by mail for medical purposes to bring them in person to vote if possible
