US Supreme Court rejects Trump’s plans on postal ballots: Why it matters

The United States Supreme Court has rejected Donald Trump's bid to restrict mail-in voting ahead of the November midterm elections, allowing states to continue sending out mail ballots. This ruling is a setback for Trump, who has cast doubt on the security of mail voting, despite voting by mail himself in the 2024 election. Mail-in ballots, in place for decades, currently account for a third of all votes cast in the US.
