Trump Vows To End Mail-In Ballots: What MI Voters Need To Know

- On August 18, 2025, President Donald Trump announced an executive order to end mail-in voting, calling the system a 'scam' that enables fraud.
- Trump's announcement follows his repeated claims, disputed by experts, that mail-in voting causes widespread fraud and undermines election integrity.
- Mail-In voting is widely used and historically rare in fraud cases, with studies showing fewer than 500 incidents out of millions of ballots cast.
- Legal experts note Trump lacks authority to ban mail-in ballots since the Constitution assigns election regulation powers to states and Congress.
- Critics warn that eliminating mail-in voting and voting machines could disenfranchise millions and disrupt elections, while states prepare legal challenges to preserve these systems.
