Missouri congressional map fight returns to Supreme Court for third time
A topsy-turvy legal fight over Missouri’s congressional map returned to the Supreme Court for the third time this month,
creating uncertainty in pivotal midterm elections days after the state began sending out mail-in ballots.

asked the Supreme Court late Tuesday to block yet again a map that would likely allow Republicans to pick up an extr…

Da ist auch der Kauf von Kryptowerten durch einen Bediensteten in leitender Funktion, der damit angeblich neue digitale Techniken erproben wollte. Dem Rechnungshof mag allerdings nicht einleuchten, warum dafür Steuergelder in Höhe von 33 000 Euro in Kryptowährungen umgetauscht wurden und die Bestätigung der Transaktionen häufig an private E-Mail-Adressen erfolgte. Fazit der Prüfer: Der dienstliche Nutzen sei zweifelhaft, die beschafften Kryptowerte seien „mittlerweile weitgehend wertlos“.
Der Fuhrpark ist überdimensioniert. Die Mitarbeiter verwenden nur 30 Prozent ihrer Tätigkeit für originäre Aufgaben. Ein während der Corona-Pandemie eingerichtetes Videostudio kostete mit 1,2 Millionen Euro doppelt so viel wie ursprünglich geplant, ist nicht ausgelastet und wird zur Produktion „digitaler Weihnachtsgrüße“ benutzt. Angeblich zu Testzwecken kauften LMZ-Mitarbeiter dann auch noch für 33.000 Euro Kryptowährungen.

by placing new requirements on states,
just before the election.
That plan remains frozen by the courts, at least for now.
Since the administration announced the proposal, a legal fight over the plan has made its way through the federal courts.
The legal developments have been dizzying, confusing both voters and local officials.
But the legal fight may now be coming to a…

Donald Trump has received another setback in his ongoing quest to control U.S. elections.
In a 5-4 split, the Supreme Court ruled that mail-in ballots do not need to be received by Election Day to be counted,
as long as they were postmarked by then.
Although a “rare victory for voting rights,” the conservative justices’ assertion that voting by mail is prone to fraud
— a disproven theory that Trump blames his loss in the 2020 election for
— is “very disturbing…

A federal judge in Boston said on Thursday the US Postal Service had told her nothing about how it would implement a plan to regulate mail ballots for the midterms
as she considers whether to let the plan proceed in the weeks before election day.
US district court judge Indira Talwani is deciding whether to extend her prohibition on the proposed regulation of mail ballots,
an effort undertaken as part of an executive order by Donald Trump.
The hearing in the closely …

An anonymous federal whistleblower has warned that the Trump administration’s new system for handling mail ballots through the U.S.
Postal Service is untested,
fatally flawed and likely to lead to a
“catastrophic failure”
if it’s implemented ahead of November’s midterm elections.
This follows President Trump’s executive order in March
directing his administration to create federal lists of citizens and to refuse delivery of mail-in ballots to people not o…

The Trump administration renewed its appeal to the US supreme court on Sunday
to allow restrictions on mail-in voting,
after a federal judge had blocked new limits on such ballots, just ahead of November’s midterm elections.
The latest filing follows a decision by US district court judge Indira Talwani on Friday to extend a court order
preventing the US Postal Service (USPS) from enforcing Donald Trump’s executive order.
The legal fight was continuing as states …

House Republicans on Wednesday made another attempt to answer Donald Trump’s demand for new restrictions on voting nationwide
by linking the measure to an unrelated spending bill and passing both largely along party lines.
The effort was the latest attempt by congressional Republicans to pass the Save America Act,
which would ban mail-in ballots and impose new identification requirements on voters when they register and cast ballots.
While the Trump administration ha…

A federal judge on Friday again blocked Donald Trump’s executive order
to impose sweeping restrictions on mail-in voting,
the latest in a legal back-and-forth playing out less than two months before election day.
US district court judge Indira Talwani initially placed a temporary order blocking the president’s mandate
and has now extended that prohibition with a stronger preliminary injunction.
The ruling comes hours after North Carolina became the first state …

The Supreme Court on Monday
lifted a lower court’s injunction on Trump’s executive order
seeking to limit mail-in voting
ahead of November’s midterm elections.
Trump’s order directs the Department of Homeland Security to create state-by-state lists of eligible voters who are citizens.
The U.S. Postal Service would then use the lists provided by states to assess whether voters should be allowed to vote by mail.
Justices ruled 6 to 3 that California and 22 …

For Donald Trump, it’s always personal.
And he leaves this week feeling betrayed.
First, the US supreme court rejected his effort to restrict mail-in ballots ahead of the midterm elections.
“These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court,”
the president wrote on his Truth Socialplatform. “They are merely a shell of their original selves.”
Then the Federal Reserve defied Trump by raising its benchmark interest rate by a quarte…

Trump’s legal and rhetorical assault on voting by mail
— and the flurry of contradictory court decisions around it
— has left voters confused and local officials scrambling just eight weeks before November’s critical midterm elections.
The contortions have county registrars dusting off Election Day contingency plans developed for natural disasters like floods and wildfires.
They have struggled to make it through planning meetings before the latest version of the rules…

A Florida county’s mail-in ballot envelope design was almost rejected by the U.S. Postal Service -- for less than two-hundredths of an inch.
Leon County, Florida’s mail ballot envelope design placed the words “return service requested”
0.236 inches away from its election office’s return address,
when it was supposed to be a quarter-inch,
leading the USPS to reject it on September 2, the Tallahassee Democrat reports.
The county’s supervisor of elections, Mark Ea…

So far, the president’s plot to subvert the integrity of the midterm elections looks like this:
Issue a rule requiring states to give lists of mail-in voters to the Postal Service if their citizens hope to receive mail-in ballots.
Knowing that this is a blatantly unconstitutional seizure of the states’ prerogative to run their own elections,
count on a federal court to block the rule.
Then challenge the injunction, arguing
— under the Supreme Court’s “Purcell …

Nearly one in three voters now vote by mail.
Trump’s executive order has already sowed doubt about whether Americans can continue to trust the Postal Service to deliver their ballots
and prompted bipartisan alarm from states and local election officials.
The sooner the Supreme Court puts Trump’s ill-advised directive to rest, the better.
Trump’s order is illegal.
He does not have the authority to set the rules for election administration.
