Federal appeals court rejects Trump bid to enforce mail ballot order ahead of midterm elections

A federal appeals court has rejected the Trump administration's bid to enforce key parts of President Donald Trump's executive order tightening mail-in voting rules in 23 Democratic-led states ahead of midterm elections. The order aimed to restrict mail-in ballot applications and procedures in these states. However, the court refused to let the government implement these changes, which would have affected millions of voters in the 2022 midterm elections.
