Jake Johnson of Common Dreams reports: “A coalition of two dozen Democratic-led states filed a lawsuit on Wednesday challenging President Donald Trump’s attempt to use the US Postal Service as a vehicle for his assault on mail-in voting, which he has targeted incessantly during both of his White House terms.
The lawsuit targets a newly finalized USPS rule under which the postal service would not deliver ballots in states that don’t provide their voter data to the federal government. Rhode Island Attorney General Peter Neronha said in a statement Wednesday that “this is yet another example of this administration’s unlawful overreach and is in direct violation of the Constitution, which makes clear that states have the primary authority to administer elections.”
