  • 邮政服务新规落实特朗普的邮寄选票指令
  • 法官曾临时叫停美国邮政署的邮寄选票规则
  • 诉状称该规则可防范选民欺诈,但此类证据极为罕见

9月3日(路透社)——特朗普政府周四向最高法院提出申请,要求允许其实施一项收紧邮寄选票使用规定的美国邮政服务新规。此前一名法官在11月中期选举前临时叫停了该监管规则,政府随即采取了行动。

在一项紧急请求中,司法部要求最高法院撤销波士顿联邦地区法官因迪拉·塔尔瓦尼的禁令,该禁令临时阻止美国邮政署执行这项新规。该新规是在这位共和党总统发布限制邮寄选票的行政命令后出台的。

美国邮政署的新规将引入针对选民的专属数据和选票信封标准,并可能拒收不符合标准的选票。批评人士称,随着11月3日选举临近,这可能会导致数千张合法选票失效。

共和党人正为保住国会控制权展开激烈角逐。批评人士指出,鉴于民主党选民历来更倾向于使用邮寄选票,限制邮寄选票将不成比例地有利于共和党。

这是特朗普政府在为其针对各州和选民权益团体法律挑战的行政令辩护时,第二次诉诸最高法院。8月24日,最高法院撤销了塔尔瓦尼在6月发布的、阻止特朗普行政令执行的早期禁令。

该裁决由最高法院6票赞成、3票反对的保守派多数作出,认定大多由民主党执政的州联盟起诉时机过早,但也为后续其他挑战敞开了大门。最高法院的三名自由派法官持反对意见。

新规将收紧邮寄选票递送标准

根据美国邮政署的新规定,各州必须向邮政服务机构提供邮寄选票收件人的名单(将在新标签页打开),并使用经该机构批准的、带有唯一条形码的寄递和返还选票信封。随后,邮政署可拒绝向不符合新标准或关联选民未出现在名单上的选票进行寄送。

特朗普于今年3月签署了针对邮寄选票的行政令,多年来他一直对邮寄选票的安全性表示质疑,尽管有关选民欺诈的证据极为罕见。特朗普曾多次虚假宣称美国选举存在大规模欺诈行为,包括他在2020年大选中输给前民主党总统乔·拜登的那场选举。

美国政府周四在书面诉状中敦促最高法院允许其实施“一项保护邮件不被用于选民欺诈的重要联邦政策”。

大多由民主党执政的州和哥伦比亚特区联盟,以及若干选民权益团体对这项美国邮政署新规提起了诉讼。

塔尔瓦尼于8月27日发布临时禁令,叫停该规则14天,认定该规则很可能违反了由各州负责选举管理的美国宪法,且鉴于中期选举临近,各州根本无法遵守该规则。

司法部曾要求波士顿的美国第一巡回上诉法院暂停该法官的禁令,但并未等待裁决结果便直接转向了最高法院。

塔尔瓦尼周四还举行了听证会,考虑是否发布更长期的禁令。

Trump administration takes mail-in ballot fight to US Supreme Court

  • Postal service rule implements Trump’s mail-in ballot order
  • Judge had temporarily blocked USPS mail-ballot rule
  • Filing says rule prevents voter fraud, but such evidence is rare

Sept 3 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump’s administration asked the Supreme Court on Thursday to ​let it enforce a new U.S. Postal Service rule tightening the use of mail-in ballots, moving swiftly after ‌a judge temporarily blocked the regulation ahead of November’s midterm elections.

In an emergency request, the Justice Department asked the Supreme Court to lift Boston-based U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani’s order temporarily preventing the USPS from enforcing the new rule, which it adopted following an executive order by the Republican president to ​restrict mail-in ballots.

The USPS regulation would impose new voter-specific data and ballot envelope standards, and potentially refuse the delivery of ​ballots that do not comply, which critics say could disrupt thousands of legitimate votes as the November ⁠3 vote approaches.

Republicans are locked in a tight battle to retain control of Congress in the election. Critics say restricting mail-in ballots ​would stand to disproportionately benefit Republicans given that Democratic voters traditionally have been more likely to use mail-in ballots.

It is the second ​time that the administration has turned to the Supreme Court as it defends Trump’s directive against legal challenges by states and voting rights groups. On August 24 the court lifted an earlier injunction imposed by Talwani in June blocking Trump’s order.

That decision, powered by the court’s 6-3 conservative majority, faulted a coalition ​of mostly Democratic-governed states for suing too soon, but left the door open to another challenge. The court’s three liberal justices ​dissented.

RULE WOULD TIGHTEN STANDARDS FOR MAIL BALLOT DELIVERY

Under the new USPS rule, states must provide lists, opens new tab of mail ballot recipients to the postal service and use ‌agency-approved ⁠outbound and return ballot mail envelopes outfitted with unique barcodes. The postal service could then refuse to send out ballots that do not comply with the new standards or are associated with voters who do not appear on the lists.

Trump, who signed his executive order targeting mail-in ballots in March, has for years cast doubt on their security, although evidence of voter fraud is rare. Trump has ​made false claims of widespread fraud ​in U.S. elections including his ⁠2020 loss to former Democratic President Joe Biden.

The administration in its written filing on Thursday urged the Supreme Court to allow it to implement an “important federal policy to protect the mails from being ​used to commit voter fraud.”

A coalition of mostly Democratic-governed states and Washington, D.C., as well as ​a number of ⁠voting rights groups, challenged the new USPS rule.

Talwani issued a temporary order on August 27 blocking the rule for 14 days, finding that it likely violates the U.S. Constitution, under which the states administer elections, and would be impossible for the states to comply with given the ⁠rapidly approaching ​midterms.

The Justice Department asked the Boston-based 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to ​put the judge’s order on hold, but did not wait for a decision before turning to the Supreme Court.

Talwani also held a hearing on Thursday to consider whether ​to issue a longer-term injunction.
