Trump asks Supreme Court to let him curtail mail-in voting ahead of midterms

The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to allow enforcement (or to stay the injunction) of an executive order directing agencies to study restrictions on mail-in voting and to compile citizen lists for election officials; the filing argues a lower court acted prematurely and cites precedent. The legal dispute centers on whether the president has authority to direct creation of voter databases and Postal Service rulemaking, with Democratic-led states having sued and a district court blocking key parts of the order.
