ASSORTED SOURCES---6-3--TRUMP SCORES WIN AS SUPREME COURT CLEARS WAY FOR MAIL-IN VOTING ORDER AHEAD OF MIDTERMS

The Supreme Court ruled Monday that President Trump’s executive order tightening the rules around mail-in voting can be implemented ahead of the November midterm elections.

The 6-3 decision — with liberal Justices Ketanji Brown Jackson, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor dissenting — marks a major victory for Trump, but appears to leave room for future legal challenges that could delay the president’s order. More at Supreme Court clears the way for Trump mail voting order in advance of midterms
