US President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an order seeking to crack down on mail-in voting, pushing to restrict a way of casting ballots in US elections. On signing the executive order, Trump repeated his evidence-free talking points painting US elections as dysfunctional.

Polls showed that Trump's Republican Party faces a serious threat of losing its narrow control of Congress in the midterm elections in November, particularly in the House of Representatives. It was unclear whether Trump has authority to impose the measures and legal challenges are almost certain, with a possible final decision being left to the Supreme Court.
