Late Monday, the Supreme Court left in place a preliminary injunction that stops President Donald Trump’s plan to change how mail ballots are handled before the November midterms, according to The Huff Post. The ruling means the Postal Service cannot put the new requirements into effect for this election cycle.
In a short concurrence, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said applying the rule to the 2026 elections would be arbitrary and capricious under the Administrative Procedure Act. He wrote that state and local election officials do not have sufficient time to reasonably implement the rule before the elections.
