A federal judge on Thursday afternoon blocked the U.S. Postal Service from implementing core parts of a new mail-in voting rule ahead of the November congressional elections. The temporary restraining order follows a Supreme Court ruling on Monday that lifted earlier injunctions against the restrictions. Democratic-led states and voting rights groups quickly challenged the rule, which took effect on Wednesday.
