Appeals court rejects Trump bid to curb mail-in voting

A federal appeals court declined to allow the Trump administration to enforce an executive order tightening mail-in voting rules in 23 states before November's elections. The 2-1 ruling upheld an injunction by a lower-court judge who found key parts of the order unconstitutional. The decision blocks measures such as DHS compiling voter eligibility lists and USPS restrictions, with the Justice Department possibly appealing to the Supreme Court.
