No Mail-in Voting? Trump Is One Step Closer To Stealing the 2026 Election - Marc Elias - Democracy Docket [View all]
Donald Trump announced he will issue a new executive order as part of a “movement to get rid of” mail-in voting. Trump’s bid to eliminate the constitutional right is part of a broader GOP assault on the practice. In recent years, the Republican National Committee (RNC) and allied groups have brought a slew of lawsuits aimed at making voting by mail more difficult. Marc Elias explains why this isn’t just another political stunt.
“What Donald Trump wants is for you all to get numb to this. He wants you to just feel like there is nothing you can do. But that numbness itself becomes a form of complicity.” - 08/20/2025.
