American President Donald Trump signed an executive order for stricter regulation of voting by mail.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday aimed at stricter regulation of mail-in voting, in light of the midterm elections in November. Trump reiterated that this practice is responsible for fraud, a claim without concrete evidence. He stated that he does not see how this order could be challenged in court, continuing to criticize an electoral system that he considers biased.

Over time, Trump has expressed his desire to have closer control over elections, which are organized at the state level. In the past, he signed another executive order to restrict mail-in voting and impose strict controls on voter lists. Although Republicans claim that mail-in voting favors fraud, no evidence has been presented to support this assertion.

A study conducted by the Brookings Institution identified only 39 cases of fraud out of more than 100 million ballots analyzed over three decades. The U.S. Supreme Court is currently reviewing the use of mail-in voting, and its decision could influence the elections in November 2026.
