Supreme Court Rejects Trump's Mail Ballot Restrictions for Midterm Elections
The court allowed states to continue sending ballots under longstanding processes, blocking Trump's attempts to limit voter access ahead of the midterms.
The Supreme Court rejected efforts to restrict mail-in voting on Monday, permitting states to send ballots using procedures they have followed for years. Democrats said the decision will ensure "safe, secure and accurate elections," according to The Guardian.
In separate developments, Senator Bernie Sanders and conservative podcaster Steve Bannon are set to appear together Tuesday at a Washington gathering to call for restrictions on AI systems, demonstrating rare bipartisan concern about the technology's potential harms, Reuters reported.
