Trump's Interference Effort Fails Horribly

So Trump's campaign to take over the elections is failing in the courts and with voters.

Trump's attempts to seize control of how Americans vote are collapsing in court.

34 federal rulings have blocked his efforts.

Judges across the political spectrum have ruled against him, including 22 appointed by Democrats, 12 appointed by Republicans, eight of them appointed by the president himself.

His March 2025 executive order requiring documents like a passport to register to vote has effectively been blocked.

One judge writing that when it comes to running elections, the president does not feature at all.

His second order directing the postal service to refuse to deliver mail ballots to voters left off a new federal list was also struck down.

With the judge warning it could have disenfranchised millions of citizens, the Supreme Court let that ruling stand, guaranteeing voters can cast ballots in the midterm without interference.

ruling after ruling has delivered the same message the constitution gives the president no power over who votes or how the justice department has lost every single one of its 26 decided lawsuits demanding states hand over americans private voter data since may 2025 the department has tried to force nearly every state to turn over complete voter rolls, including driver's licenses and partial social security numbers.

And election officials from both parties have refused.

Judges have called the demands baseless and an Oregon court described as chilling the department's plans to build a nationwide voter database for uses including immigration enforcement.

Even a Trump-appointed judge in Maine rejected the attempt to twist a Jim Crow-era civil rights law to justify the grab, saying it would take a sledgehammer to the balance Congress created.

The administration's only notable win came in the Supreme Court for a very, very, very narrow issue that's not going to impact the midterms.

So taken together, his legal push to control elections has been rejected at nearly every turn, and his efforts to convince Americans that the midterms will be rigged is failing, too.

An overwhelming majority, 56%, believe he's trying to control election rules to ensure Republicans win, whether or not the elections are fair.

Only 37% thinks he wants fair elections, regardless of the outcome.

Nine in 10 voters, including 88% of Republicans, say officials have a duty to certify results even when the other party wins.

Election denial is also backfiring politically, with 58% saying they'd be less likely to support an official who tries to block or delay certification.

It's happening in real time.

His efforts are failing, and his effort in Alaska is going to fail today.
