President Trump can implement an executive order restricting mail-in ballots just months before the midterm elections, the Supreme Court said Monday.

Why it matters: The decision will upend midterm elections, putting election officials and administrators on a tight deadline to comply with the rule changes and aggravate privacy concerns for voters.


  • Trump has opposed mail-in voting for years, claiming without evidence that it contributes to fraud in elections.
  • One in three Americans voted by mail in the 2024 election, and Trump himself voted by mail in Florida's 2026 special election.
