Supreme Court allows Trump to impose mail-in voting restrictions

In the U.S., the Supreme Court recently allowed President Donald Trump's restrictions on mail-in voting to proceed. This ruling, made on August 22, 2026, comes just weeks before the midterm elections and raises concerns about the potential impact on millions of voters. Critics, including Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, argue that the decision injects chaos into the electoral process, while election officials fear it could disenfranchise voters who rely on mail-in ballots.
