Democratic officials in 19 states reportedly filed a lawsuit on Thursday and tried to block the executive order of President Donald Trump to rework the US elections. They called the Executive Rules of the Unconstitutional Invasion of the Clear Authority of the States to control their own elections.
The court of court is fourth against an executive order issued just a week ago, the Associated Press reported.
What does a fresh court say
A court lawsuit – filed by the Democratic National Committee, the Association of Democratic Governors and the Senate and House Democratic leaders in the recent Executive Regulation – claims that the Order is unconstitutional.
It seeks to block the key aspects of the Trump Executive Order, including the new requirements that people provide documentary evidence of citizenship when registering a vote and a request that all postal ballots be admitted to the Electoral Day.
The Court also claims that the order could free legal voters.
To force states to change, the action would say that it would violate the broad authority that the Constitution gives states to state its own electoral rules. It is said that they decide on “times, places and way”, as the elections are made.
Many claim that the Democrats sued Trump’s administration to allow the non -elections to vote in the US elections. This statement is false. Throwing vote as non-giving in the federal elections is already illegal.
“The President has no power”
The Court asks Trump’s executive order to rework the US elections to be blocked because the President does not have the power to dictate election rules.
“The president has no power of that,” he wrote general representatives in court documents. “EO elections are unconstitutional, anti -democratic and non -American,” AP said.
Congress has the power to “make or change” election regulations, at least for the Federal Office, but the Constitution does not mention any presidential power over the administration of the elections.
