Summary
A federal judge has blocked the U.S. Postal Service from carrying out an executive order on mail-in ballots, citing a settlement agreement in an earlier lawsuit between the postal service and the NAACP. The order, issued by President Donald Trump, required states to provide a list of mail-in voters before the postal service would transmit ballots. The ruling from U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan blocks the postal service from implementing the order nationwide.

As expected, the matter has reached another stage.
The President issues an executive order, and the courts respond. The order is blocked, and the administration vows to appeal. The familiar dance between the executive and judicial branches continues. The Postal Service is caught in the middle, its actions subject to the whims of the political process. The voters, meanwhile, wait for clarity on how they will cast their ballots.
