This ruling doesn’t change the outcome of this election. The outcome of this election is up to the voters. Because in America, voters choose their leaders, not the other way around.

Today’s Supreme Court decision opens the door to real harm in future elections by allowing states to use a flawed federal system to scan the voter rolls.
But here’s what you need to know: federal law bars states from mass-removing voters this close to an election. 🧵
Breaking News: The Supreme Court ruled the Trump administration can deploy an expansive voter identification tool, allowing states to hunt for ineligible voters. Critics fear using the system could result in the purging valid voters from state rolls. nyti.ms/3TsCnVE

The DOJ is now 0-25 in their efforts to secure private voter data. ✅
The court losses are a reminder that states are charged with administering our elections, not the federal government.
Donald Trump’s Department of Justice suffered its 25th straight district court loss in its nationwide campaign to force states to hand over unredacted voter registration data, after a federal judge in Washington rejected the department’s legal theory. democracydocket.com/news-ale…
Different teams. One shared message: Every Arizona voter needs a game plan.
Track it. Receive it. Vote it. Return it.

Election officials should never have been forced to scramble over mail ballot rules 50 days out from an election. The Supreme Court stepped in, and now they can get back to their real job: preparing for elections and making sure every vote counts.

Election officials already have a big job: making sure elections run smoothly & every voter can make their voice heard.
They shouldn't have to spend time responding to threats and fighting misinformation from this administration.

Freedom is not a concept--it is a right in action. People sacrificed everything for your right to vote and choose your leaders. Respect their legacy. Do not sit this one out. Register today and make your voice heard. 🇺🇸 #GetReadyToVote
Good news: a second federal judge has now blocked Trump's mail voting restrictions, reaffirming what the first ruling already made clear: this is an illegal power grab that could disenfranchise millions of voters, and it shouldn’t take effect.

Major kudos to election officials across the country holding the line against Trump's mail voting restrictions that could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters.
Accessible voting isn't a partisan issue , it's a right every voter should have.
Just in: Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and a bipartisan group of current and former election officials are urging the U.S. Supreme Court to block a new USPS ballot-mail rule from taking effect for the 2026 midterms.
The amicus brief includes 38 current and former election officials from 10 states, including five other Republican secretaries of state and dozens of local election officials. #gapolacrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aai…
As midterm elections get closer, the Trump admin’s attempts to meddle are getting more desperate.
Their latest move to subpoena Nevada election officials is part of the broader effort to exert control over state-run elections and intimidate voters. allvotingislocal.org/stateme…
This move is a waste of resources and a desperate and pathetic attempt to control elections by scapegoating immigrants and spreading lies which can keep specific groups from voting, including Black, Brown, and new Americans.
States run elections, period.

Today's news that Trump and the U.S. Postal Service are secretly trying to block 47 million people from voting by mail is illegal and wild.
It's a desperate attempt to control our elections before a single ballot is cast.
Our full statement: allvotingislocal.org/stateme…
It simply decided that the lower court’s decision blocking these new restrictions came too early — a question about timing, not about power. States, not Trump or the USPS, are granted power by the Constitution to run elections.
