Democratic state officials urge US Supreme Court to affirm pause on Trump vote-by-mail order
Democratic state officials, led by California Attorney General Rob Bonta, urged the U.S. Supreme Court to maintain a pause on an executive order mandating changes to mail-in-voting systems before November's midterm elections. They argued the order would create confusion and disenfranchise voters, particularly those with disabilities and in rural areas. The officials emphasized that election administration is a state responsibility under the Constitution, not the federal government.
