     Nejvyšší soud USA podpořil Trumpův dekret na zpřísnění hlasování poštou

     Nejvyšší soud Spojených států zrušil soudní rozhodnutí, které vládě amerického prezidenta Donalda Trumpa bránilo zavést zpřísnění pravidel pro korespondenční hlasování před listopadovými volbami do Kongresu. O pondělním verdiktu informovala agentura AP. Ta zároveň poznamenala, že není jasné, do jaké míry lze před blížícími se volbami nařízení v odblokovaném Trumpově dekretu uskutečnit. Trump korespondenční hlasování dlouhodobě kritizuje a bez důkazů ho označuje za zdroj volebních podvodů.
