US Supreme Court rejects Trump's attempt to restrict mail-in voting

Now15 September 2026 at 10:25

The Supreme Court of the United States rejected an attempt by former President Donald Trump to restrict mail-in voting. The decision represents a significant milestone in the American political landscape, particularly regarding the electoral disputes that have marked the country.

Donald Trump was directly involved in the attempt to limit access to postal voting. The Supreme Court, composed of nine justices, decided against the measure proposed by the former president.

Mail-in voting became a particularly controversial topic in the United States, especially during and after the 2020 elections, when Trump repeatedly questioned the integrity of this voting method. This decision by the higher court now prevents one of the initiatives the former president sought to implement.

Why this matters

This decision directly affects millions of American voters who use mail-in voting, ensuring that this voting method remains accessible. This is a victory for those advocating for greater access to voting and may have significant implications for voter participation in the US.
