WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic officials in 19 states filed a lawsuit Thursday against President Donald Trump’s attempt to reshape elections across the U.S., calling it an unconstitutional invasion of states’ clear authority to run their own elections.

The lawsuit, filed Thursday in federal court in Boston, seeks to have a judge block the provisions of Trump’s order and declare them “unconstitutional and void,” arguing that the order exceeds Trump’s authority and violates the separation of powers,

The president signed an executive order last week that overhauls U.S. elections by giving unprecedented power to the federal government to regulate voting.

The months-long audit began in December 2024. It compared more than 7.9 million active driving records of Michigan residents of voting age to more than 7.2 million active registered voters in the state’s Qualified Voter File, according to the release.

Crawford's victory cements liberal control of the court until at least 2028 and marks a defeat for President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk.

Should Democrats do exceptionally well on Tuesday, it would signal more than just political enthusiasm — it could indicate a genuine shift in voter sentiment.

A common assumption holds that nonreligious Americans vote for liberal candidates. The reality isn’t so simple.
