A federal judge who had previously blocked the most controversial part of President Trump's executive order aimed at restricting mail-in ballots has lifted that decision. The blocked provision involved using the Postal Service as the primary enforcer of mail-voter eligibility. This change follows the Supreme Court's ruling on Monday, August 24th, 2026, that legal challenges to the order were premature.
With the judge's decision on Wednesday, August 26th, 2026, there are no longer any legal holds on any aspect of Trump's March 2026 mail-in ballot executive order. The administration is now free to proceed with implementing the order without any caveats.
