The order directs federal agencies to compile voter lists for states, emphasizing immigration status, and demands that mail-in ballots be sent in special tracked envelopes. It also pressures states to supply voter data on mailing, threatening to withhold federal funds and challenging states\u2019 eligibility to vote by mail. Critics, including court rulings, argue that executive actions interfere with state and federal constitutional authority over elections. Minnesota and other state officials have denounced the order&#8217;s constitutional violations and plan to contest it in court. The debate revolves around the constitutionality of White House intervention in state election processes, which many view as a blatant attempt to undermine the trust in mail-in voting, a practice that ensures multiple robust security checks.<\/p>\n<p>Key Points:<br \/>\n&#8211; Trump signed an executive order to regulate mail-in voting and compile federal voter lists.<br \/>\n&#8211; The directive relies on controversial databases and mandates special mail-in ballot packaging.<br \/>\n&#8211; Critics argue it usurps state authority over election procedures and will likely be challenged in court.<br \/>\n&#8211; Historical evidence shows criminal non-citizen voting is negligible.<br \/>\n&#8211; Experts predict the order will be struck down like previous executive orders due to its unconstitutionality.<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>White House executive order purports to limit mail-in voting, mandate federal voter lists\u00a0 https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/white-house-elections-executive-order-limits-mail-voting-creates-federal-voter-lists\/ Publish&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":211795,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"http:\/\/2.gravatar.com\/avatar\/ea8b076b398ee48b71cfaecf898c582b?s=192&d=mm&r=g","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-211794","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211794"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=211794"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211794\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":211796,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211794\/revisions\/211796"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/211795"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=211794"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=211794"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=211794"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
