Evers Calls Trump's Order Restricting Mail-In Voting 'Bulls--t'
Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers says President Donald Trump’s order to restrict absentee ballots from going to people not vetted by his administration is “bulls—,” and he looks forward to seeing the president in court.
On Monday, Trump signed an executive order, titled “Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections,” which instructs the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Social Security Administration to send election officials in states like Wisconsin lists of “individuals confirmed to be United States citizens” who will be old enough to vote before upcoming federal elections. The order also requires the U.S. Postal Service to prevent mail-in ballots from being sent to anyone not on the list.
Components of the order are similar to provisions in the Republican SAVE Act, which is before Congress. The U.S. House passed that bill in February, but it’s currently stalled in the Senate.
The order comes after years of Trump spreading falsehoods about his 2020 loss to former President Joe Biden. While Trump has called mail-in voting a source of widespread election fraud, he voted by mail in Florida last month.
