Trump accuses Supreme Court of "horrible" decision on mail voting

RTP Notícias15 September 2026 at 17:30

US President Donald Trump today harshly criticized the decision by the Supreme Court of the United States to reject a motion aimed at restricting mail-in voting in the midterm elections in November.

Trump called the decision "horrible and highly political," demonstrating his disagreement with the US Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court rejected the motion filed by the Trump administration, which sought to impose limitations on mail-in voting in states that had already implemented this system for the midterm elections.

The decision comes in a context of political tension in the United States, where the President has been regularly questioning the integrity of the electoral process, particularly regarding mail-in voting.

Why this matters

The Supreme Court's decision on mail voting could have a significant impact on the US electoral process, potentially affecting how millions of Americans will vote in November's elections. Trump's strong criticism demonstrates the political polarization around this issue in the United States.
