US District Judge Indira Talwani in Boston blocked the US Postal Service nationwide from implementing part of an executive order tightening mail-in voting rules ahead of the November midterms.
The ruling expands an earlier June order that only stopped enforcement in 23 mostly Democratic-led states, after voting rights groups pushed for a nationwide block.
The rule would have required states to hand over voter lists and adopt new balloting procedures or else USPS would refuse to deliver ballots; plaintiffs argued the agency had no legal basis to withhold delivery.
