A federal judge struck down a proposed rule from the Postal Service that would have forced states to turn over their mail-in and absentee voter rolls to the agency.
Senior Judge Emmet G. Sullivan, a nominee of former President Bill Clinton, ordered the USPS to be enjoined from implementing its proposed rule in line with President Donald Trump‘s executive order to stop delivering mail-in ballots to states that do not turn over their voter rolls. The proposed rule outlined a method for each state and the USPS to agree on a “Mail-In and Absentee Participation List,” and how mail-in ballots should be packaged.
