AG’s secured a temporary restraining order from a federal judge, temporarily blocking a new rule by the USPS that would have imposed burdensome requirements on vote-by-mail.
"This is a win for every Arizona voter and the rule of law," said Attorney General Kris Mayes. "Arizonans have voted safely and securely by mail for decades. In a system designed by Republicans, at least three-quarters of Arizona voters choose to vote by mail. Today the court agreed that the federal government cannot upend our election system just weeks before ballots go out.”
