Trump's switch makes for a confusing message for GOP voters, who have been programmed to believe that mail voting can’t be trusted.

A divided Colorado Supreme Court is removing former President Donald Trump from the state’s primary ballot, saying in a historic ruling that he is ineligible to be president after his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

In 2022, Pennsylvania Democrats out-voted Republicans by mail by more than 3-to-1, netting 69% of the nearly 1.25 million mail ballots cast.

Only scattered challenges to certification of the midterm election have been reported in the United States, and not a single one is based on any problems with the accuracy of the results. The biggest certification challenge comes in a lightly populated county in southeastern Arizona.

In most midterm election years, races for state supreme court seats are overshadowed by campaigns for governor or the Senate. But some Republicans say the party’s priorities need to change.

Many Republicans, led by Donald Trump, are continuing to question the validity of the 2020 election, and critics say that denial shows how the party is increasingly open to bucking democratic norms.
