@MaryAustinBooks@mstdn.social A dear friend back in Texas was called out of state to assist her dying father about a month ago. He died earlier this week. Hers is the reason mail-in ballots exist, but it never arrived. I hope she takes action. #votersuppression

Trump's #DHS goons:🚨Armed & in uniform, fed agents from the DHS have been knocking on doors in several states to ask residents about their IMM status -🚨& to inquire if they have registered to vote or cast votes in past #elections. The op is part of an effort to root out potential noncitizen voters ahead of the MTs. DHS alleged➡️could be as many as 250K citizens illegally registered to vote... Just 156 ppl: charged with voting-fraud rel offenses... #VoterSuppression #USPol

From NPR (no paywall) "The Supreme Court rejects Trump's mail voting restrictions for this year's midterms" https://www.npr.org/2026/09/14/nx-s1-5962190/supreme-court-mail-in-voting-trump "The Supreme Court has ruled against President Trump, rejecting his efforts to enact new mail-in voting restrictions for the midterm election. The ruling released Monday by the high court means the U.S. Postal Service is expected to continue delivering ballots as usual." #USPol #Elections #Voting #VoteByMail #USPS #SCOTUS #VoterSuppression #Resist

Quoting
Nearly 150,000 #MailBallots rejected in #California primary despite efforts to count every vote. Lawmakers concerned about #USPS #postmark changes. In January, a group of mostly Democratic US senators sent a letter to the USPS, alarmed that mail-processing changes might affect postmark dates for mail-in ballots during an #election year that will determine control of #Congress. #law #ElectionLaw #VoterSuppressionhttps://apnews.com/article/california-primary-rejected-mail-ballots-voting-2291684fe4544cab2301f8965abc8f79

Updated #USPS policy says #postmarks might not indicate the first day the Postal Service received the mail, but rather the day it was handled in one of its processing centers. Those centers are increasingly likely to be further away from certain communities because of recent consolidations within the Postal Service, which could further delay postmarks. #law #ElectionLaw #MailBallots #elections #midterms #VoterSuppression

The US Postal Service (USPS) published a proposed rule to allow the federal government to control who can cast a mail-in or absentee ballot. States would have to send a list of every voter slated to receive a ballot by mail to the USPS. Public comments are now being accepted on this rule. See link for info on how to send an email with your comment. https://5calls.org/issue/usps-mail-voting-rule/ #USPol #USPS #VoteByMail #VoterSuppression #Elections #Resist
