Trump’s pledge to scrap mail-in voting could throw U.S. elections into a tailspin

U.S. President Donald Trump takes a question from a reporter aboard Air Force One on August 15, 2025, in flight. President Trump is traveling to Anchorage, Alaska, for peace talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the war with Ukraine.

U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening to ban mail-in voting ahead of the country’s midterm elections — a move that could throw the electoral system into disarray and disenfranchise millions who rely on this method to cast a ballot. Scholars also say he has absolutely no authority to make such a change.
