As President Donald Trump reignites his efforts to end universal mail voting and the use of electronic voting machines, Nevada officials say any changes would have to go through the state.
In a Truth Social post on Monday, Trump said he planned to “lead a movement to get rid of” mail-in ballots and “Highly ‘Inaccurate,’ Very Expensive and Seriously Controversial” voting machines. He said he would use an executive order in an attempt to implement changes for the 2026 midterm elections.
Trump’s renewed push came days after a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, during which Trump said Putin supported his claims that the 2020 election was stolen. Trump has falsely argued he lost the presidential election because of voter fraud, which he attributed in part to mail-in ballots.
