Trump fires election commission before midterms
Donald Trump has ousted the remaining three members of the bipartisan Election Assistance Commission, the federal body that maintains the national mail-voter registration form and supports election administration across states. The firings land just months before the 2026 midterms, raising alarm about who will manage the administrative infrastructure of American elections. The commission's lone Republican appointee resigned, while the two Democratic members were terminated.
