Trump’s Anti-Voting Order Sparks Outrage
President Trump’s new executive order, imposing a proof-of-citizenship requirement for voter registration and threatening penalties for states counting late ballots, has sparked immediate backlash from Democrats and voting rights advocates. Legal experts deem the order unlawful, an abuse of executive power potentially disenfranchising millions of voters, and a blatant attempt to reshape election administration. The ACLU and other prominent legal groups have pledged to challenge the order in court, anticipating extensive legal battles. Critics argue the order is an unconstitutional power grab designed to undermine the 2026 midterm elections.
