Trump Orders the Postal Service to Not Deliver Mail-In Ballots to States That Refuse to Turn Over Their Voter Lists

CNN is so mad.

States' rights! States' rights! States' rights!

Postal Service won't deliver mail ballots for states that don't hand over voter lists, under plan for Trump directive

State election officials could soon face a stark choice: Hand over voter lists to the Trump administration or risk losing Postal Service delivery for mail-in ballots.

That dilemma stems from newly proposed USPS rules that seek to comply with an executive order President Donald Trump signed this spring to crack down on mail-in voting.

Crack down on illegal mail-in voting.

CNN is garbage and I can't wait until they're all fired.

If courts let the order stand, it would give the federal government an unprecedented role in elections -- and could put even more voter data in the hands of Trump officials searching for supposed election fraud.

1, it's not supposed, and 2, this reveals that you did know the measure is intended to crack down on illegal mail-in voting, but chose to conceal that from readers out of a motive to propagandize for the Democrat Party and their legions of fake voters.

The proposed rules lay out new conditions that states would have to meet to send ballots through the mail, including giving the agency lists of all voters set to receive mail ballots.

So far, 23 Democratic-led states and the District of Columbia are suing, as are Democratic Party leaders and non-partisan voter advocacy groups, setting up a potentially active summer of high-stakes judicial rulings.

The Trump administration cleared an initial legal hurdle last month, when a federal judge in Washington, DC, who is overseeing one set of the cases, declined to block Trump's executive order, allowing the Postal Service to begin implementing it.

The Democratic Party groups are asking an appeals court to speed up its review of that decision, warning that voters around the country could be disenfranchised in this year's midterm elections if the proposal is not blocked.

In an interview with CNN, Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows, a Democrat whose state is part of the coalition that filed a legal challenge in Boston, said that if courts rule for the Trump administration, "Then you will see a virtual elimination of mail-in voting, unless the states supply voter lists to the federal government."

Yes, "unless" states obey federal directives in an area the federal government does indeed have supremacy over state law.

Look: Just secede already. You're agitating for it and I, for one, would love to be rid of you.
