U.S. Judge again blocks Postal Service’s mail-in voting restrictions
A US federal judge has extended a ban on a new Postal Service rule that would tighten mail-in voting rules ahead of November's congressional elections. The judge says the executive has no power to override state voting laws, and the strict deadlines could create chaos for voters. The administration is appealing, so this may change. Keep track of voting instructions from your state.
