Trump's New Executive Order Could Cost You Your Vote—and Your Wallet
The White House just dropped a mail-in voting executive order that's about to shake up how you cast your ballot—and it could hit your pocketbook hard. This new rule tightens deadlines for absentee ballots and requires stricter ID checks, meaning if you're planning to vote by mail in upcoming elections, you might need to shell out for extra postage, travel to a DMV for a compliant ID, or even pay for a notary. Worst case? Your vote gets tossed if it arrives a day late, wasting your time and money. For the average voter, this executive order on mail-in voting is a direct hit to convenience and costs, so gear up for longer lines at polling places—or dig deeper into your wallet to play by the new rules.
