Democrats Sue to Challenge Trump’s Mail-in Ballot Limits

Congressional Democratic leaders sued to block President Donald Trump from prohibiting mail-in voting for anyone not on a pre-approved list of citizens to be compiled by the Department of Homeland Security.

Top Democrats in the House and Senate, along with their campaign committees and the Democratic National Committee, allege that the executive order issued Tuesday by the president “dramatically restricts the ability of Americans to vote by mail, impinging on traditional state authority,” according to the complaint filed late Wednesday in Washington federal court.
