Trump Administration Drafts Emergency Executive Order to Seize Control of Elections
Pro-Trump lawyers and election deniers have coordinated with the White House on a draft executive order declaring a national emergency to seize control of US elections, including potential bans on mail-in voting and voting machines ahead of midterms. Trump publicly denied awareness of the draft order on February 27-28. The order would unconstitutionally nationalize election administration, a power reserved to states under the Constitution.
