Voter ID must be part of every vote: Trump on mail-in ballot ban
US President Donald Trump has announced plans to issue an executive order requiring voter ID for every vote amid plans to ban mail-in ballots, except for the very ill and overseas military, ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. Trump, who falsely claims the 2020 election was rigged, has pushed for paper ballots, despite election officials noting their cost and inaccuracy.
