Watch: Trump Reminds Press He's Ending Mail-in Voting - in Fact the Executive Order May Be Ready Right Now

The timing of Trump's post raised the possibility that he might soon announce a much-needed executive order on mail-in ballots.

More than any other major political figure, President Donald Trump regularly communicates his intentions through social media.

Thus, when Trump posts something cryptic and seemingly random on his social media platform Truth Social, people take notice.

On Wednesday, for instance, the president posted a two-month-old video of himself answering a reporter’s question about mail-in voting, which raises the possibility that he might soon announce a long-promised executive order on the subject.

We'll see if the courts decide the President has that power with regard to voting. I don't believe he does, but I'm not a Constitutional expert, it's just my thought. One never knows which way the courts will go nowadays.

Very murky waters in state vs federal election rules. But, I do agree that mail in voting for everyone invites fraud.

I liked it for myself but want everyone else to go in person.

I don't understand why mail-in voting is upsetting everyone. When we go to vote here in person, they don't even check for id.
So voting in person could be just as fraudulent as any mail-in ballot. OH...........maybe we should just give up voting altogether
so no fraud is going on. The one with the most money will become president???????? Or the president will be appointed by the
Supreme Court or something????? I'm more concerned with the voting machines being fraudulent, especially with the new ownership
of them.

Same here, but I also want everyone else to have an ID card, but not me…..

Serious note - I will never understand why the left refuses to require all voters present an ID.

That is the big question.

Down here you have to get your name marked off a role to confirm that you were present to vote and then you can vote and anonymously slip your voting paper into a ballot box.

I usually dread it because you have a gauntlet of people leading up to the local voting hall hounding you to vote for the party they represent.

I just walk up the queue and ignore them all or just flat out say not interested before they even begin their sales pitch LOL

I would love to see ID verification for everyone as they vote. My ID was checked in NH, it wasn’t in MA.

This shouldn’t be controversial.

I've always had to show my ID to vote, in Alaska and now in Wyoming.

The problem with mail-in voting is that there is no way to prove where a mailed ballot came from ... especially where ballots can be dropped anonymously into a ballot drop box. In places where they have audited mail-in ballots, they have found ballots that did not come from the people whose names were on them, ballots from non-existent people, ballots from people who say they did not vote, and m many ballots that were counted yet did not have any verification attached to them to prove they were from as legitimate voter. With in-person voting a lot of that fraud is automatically eliminated. Of course it does not eliminate all fraud, especially in jurisdictions that fight against voter registration. Voter registration should be mandatory; I believe every voter should have to prove they are a legal voter: in other words, that they are who they say they are and are a legal American citizen. At least in our part of Illinois, you do have to show a valid state voter registration card to cast a ballot.

My hubby insists on showing his ID when we vote but the officials just get annoyed.

I strongly believe a id should be shown to prove it is actually you/photo. We also have a voter card with our name on it, and in Mo we show our id's. Mail-in voting should not be allowed because of fraud.

There does need to be a way for deployed military members to vote.

Top DOJ official threatens to punish states that don’t clean up voter rolls, follow law​

Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon announced that states that do not comply with Justice Department requests to examine voter rolls face lawsuits, eight of which have already been filed.

"We've been asking states to produce the data of their voter rolls, to be able to make sure that they only have citizens on the rolls and that they don't have duplicates and have people voting in multiple jurisdictions," Dhillon told Just The News. "So we've had to file eight lawsuits throughout the United States to enforce our data requests, which is something that they have to comply with under the Voting Rights Act and Civil Rights Act of 1960."

The eight lawsuits referenced are against the states of California, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, New York, and most recently, Oregon and Maine.

The DOJ has asserted that these states are not complying with federal laws, specifically the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) and the Help America Vote Act (HAVA). These laws require states to maintain accurate and accessible voter registration records.

Since voter data should be accessible, the DOJ is seeking comprehensive voter registration lists that include information like names, date of birth, addresses, state driver's license numbers and the last four digits of Social Security numbers.

Top DOJ official threatens to punish states that don’t clean up voter rolls, follow law

Though many blue states protest, states are required to submit voter data to the DOJ under federal election laws to enable verification of voter eligibility, prevent non-citizens from voting illegally, and detect duplicate registrations or multiple votes across jurisdictions.
