That effort got new attention on Monday, when the Supreme Court allowed preparations for mail voting curbs to proceed. The justices said it is not a final determination on the order’s legality.
The administration asked the court to clear the way for President Trump’s order that creates “state citizenship lists” and directs the Postal Service to decide who gets a mail-in ballot.
The plan, which complies with President Trump’s executive order to curtail mail voting, will only go into effect if the Supreme Court rules in the order’s favor.
Florida counted most of its primary ballots within hours on Tuesday night, well ahead of the days California took to report the results of its major election.
Election workers sort vote-by-mail ballots at the Miami-Dade County Supervisor of Elections Office for the Florida primary election in Doral, Fla., on Tuesday.
The president also voted by mail in 2020 and in a Florida special election in March, even as he has railed against the practice and equated it to cheating.
