  "account": "The Trump administration has asked the US Supreme Court to suspend a lower court's decision blocking new rules on mail-in voting, just two months before the midterm elections. The rules would require states to get approval from the US Postal Service (USPS) for mail-in ballot envelopes and have USPS verify voters' eligibility. A federal judge had previously ruled that President Trump's plans were likely unconstitutional and impractical to implement before the elections. The midterm elections, on November 3, will see a third of the Senate and the entire House of Representatives up for election.",
  "summary": "Just before the start of absentee voting for the congressional elections, Trump wants to push through new rules. The legal dispute over this has been going on for some time, now the US government is turning to the Supreme Court.",
