An Excerpt from SCOTUS Overruled a Blue-State Judge Who Never Should Have Blocked This:
Of course it was a Massachusetts judge. Of course she was appointed by Barack Obama.
And of course, when President Trump signed an executive order in March requiring basic verification safeguards for mail-in voting, Judge Indira Talwani in Boston reached for the injunction pen, blocking the federal government from applying key provisions in 23 states and the District of Columbia ahead of November’s elections.
On Monday, the Supreme Court told her no.
Not on the merits. Not yet.
But the administration can move forward.
And before anybody starts hyperventilating about voter suppression, let’s look at what Trump actually ordered.
He directed Homeland Security to compile lists of adult U.S. citizens and make that information available to state election officials before federal elections. Why? So states have another tool for verifying who is actually eligible to vote.
He told the attorney general to prioritize prosecutions when officials knowingly issue federal ballots to people who aren’t eligible to receive them.
And he directed the Postal Service toward a system in which states identify the voters who are supposed to receive mail ballots before those ballots start moving through the mail.
That’s it. Read it again if you need to.
We’re talking about verifying eligibility, enforcing laws already on the books and knowing who is supposed to receive a ballot before the government puts one in the mail.
Apparently, this was alarming enough that 23 states and the District of Columbia went running to federal court before much of it even happened. Which brings us to the Supreme Court.
The majority didn’t need to settle every future constitutional question surrounding Trump’s order to expose the problem with Talwani’s injunction.
The Court basically told the states: you aren’t there yet.
