The trial court judge, Indira Talwani, wrote that the legal challenge to the #USPS plan by Democratic-led states & voter rights organizations was likely to succeed.

#SCOTUS majority found the Democratic lawsuit was premature, but that was before the #Trump admin issued a rule governing #USPS delivery of #MailBallots. #Election officials warn it will be impossible to implement in the days before the first wave of mail ballots are sent out next week.
