The Mail In Voting Rule: A Last Minute Power Grab The latest twist in the ongoing saga over mail in voting has played out in courts across the country. Twenty three states and Washington D. C.
have filed a lawsuit to block a new U. S. Postal Service rule implementing President Trump's executive order on mail ballot security, which was temporarily allowed by the Supreme Court after it was challenged too soon.
