A judge appointed by Barack Obama has thrown a wrench into President Donald Trump’s vote-by-mail power grab.
Boston-based District Judge Indira Talwani has blocked key parts of an executive order signed by Trump that sought to grant federal authorities the power to determine who may vote by mail and who has their ballots withheld.
The order exceeded Trump’s authority under the Constitution, according to Talwani. Federal law says state legislatures and Congress set the rules for federal elections, not the Oval Office.
