Hochul responds to the mail-voting ruling: "President Trump does not get to rewrite election law"

Hochul issued a statement the evening of Aug. 24 following the Supreme Court's ruling on the mail-voting executive order: "Today's ruling does not change the facts: President Trump does not get to rewrite election law or suppress the right to vote with the stroke of a pen. New York's elections are secure. Our laws are clear. And the Constitution does not give the President the authority to override the longstanding role of states in administering their own elections. New York challenged this unlawful executive order from the very beginning and we'll continue the fight." The statement does not name the case or specify next steps.
