Executive Order
View OriginalSummary
This order federalizes election oversight by weaponizing the USPS and DHS to gatekeep ballot access. It coerces states into using error-prone federal lists via funding threats and turns mail carriers into eligibility guards. While framed as integrity, the mechanism shifts power to the executive branch and creates criminal liability for local officials. The primary beneficiaries are federal partisans; the costs fall on naturalized citizens and the principle of state-run elections.
