Federalist Society member / Trump-nominated judge signs off on Trump's unconstitutional mail-in ballot scam
U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Federalist Society member who was nominated to the bench by Trump in June 2018, ruled that Democrats hopes to block the planwhich would create a federal list of citizens eligible to vote and ask the U.S. Postal Service to only mail ballots to those peoplewere premature.
Given that the Executive Order does not command Plaintiffs to do anything, and that no agency has yet acted pursuant to the Order in a way that could harm Plaintiffs, they have not suffered any harm at present, wrote Nichols.
Democrats had argued that the order was unconstitutional as it infringed on individual states rights to regulate elections.
Trump has long waged a war against mail-in ballots, including pushing the debunked claim that they were the cause of widespread voter fraud at the 2020 election.
