Appeals court blocks Trump from changing mail-in voting rules

In the U.S., a federal appeals court denied President Donald Trump's request to implement new mail-in voting rules on September 10, 2026. The court upheld a previous ruling that blocked the U.S. Postal Service's regulations, citing concerns over potential chaos and widespread voter disenfranchisement ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. The Trump administration argued the changes were necessary for election security, but the court found no evidence of fraud related to the upcoming election.
