Trump Encourages Supporters to Vote by Mail or In Person Ahead of Midterms
President Donald Trump has encouraged his supporters to vote by mail or in person in the upcoming November 3 midterm elections, marking a shift from his previous claims that mail-in voting was prone to fraud. While Trump expressed a preference for in-person voting, he acknowledged many voters want to use mail ballots. The Trump administration had sought to tighten mail-in voting rules, but the Supreme Court blocked enforcement. Recent polls show Republicans facing challenges with low approval ratings and undecided voters ahead of the elections.
