US Postal Service shares mail-in ballot restrictions despite court ruling 22.08.2026

The United States Postal Service (USPS) has published a final draft of proposed rules to restrict mail-in ballots, a move critics say is an attempt by President Donald Trump to exert federal oversight over election administration. The 95-page document, released on Friday, outlines requirements for states to identify voters requesting mail-in ballots and redesign ballot envelopes with barcodes for tracking. The USPS argues these changes are necessary for operational efficiency and compliance with federal law, but opponents warn they could be used to gather voter information and reject ballots in non-compliant states.
