A federal appeals court, the 1st U.S. Circuit of Appeals, ruled on Saturday against the Trump administration's attempt to enforce stricter mail-in voting rules ahead of the upcoming midterm elections, where control of both the House and Senate is at stake. The court declined to lift a lower-court injunction issued in June that had blocked parts of President Trump's executive order on mail-in voting. The decision represents a legal setback for the administration's efforts to tighten voting procedures, with the midterm elections expected in the coming months.
