The order would also mandate the use of paper ballots and restrict mail-in voting to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/afghanistan-gold-star-mom-i-wept-wanted-comfort-from-biden-he-suggested-a-photo-with-him-instead\/\" title=\"Afghanistan Gold Star Mom sought solace from Biden, but he proposed a photo together instead.\">military personnel stationed abroad<\/a> or individuals who are too ill to vote in person. While this executive order is expected to face legal challenges as states typically control their own election processes, Trump intends for it to raise public awareness and encourage congress and states to enact corresponding legislation.The effort aligns with previous accomplished initiatives where executive orders led to new laws, as noted by House Speaker Mike Johnson. The proposal addresses widely supported measures such as voter ID requirements, which <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >recent polls show enjoy bipartisan support<\/a>, and aims to reduce mail-in voting risks after the pandemic. Trump&#8217;s strategy positions him to highlight these issues and pressure Democrats who oppose such reforms, while potentially influencing state-level voting rules in key battlegrounds.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump announced over the weekend that he plans to issue an executive order aimed at establishing nationwide voting standards to prevent fraud, with the main focus being on voter identification.<\/p>\n<p>The commander in chief also said the order would establish paper ballots and limit mail-in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/urgent-report-single-voter-linked-dozens-votes-critical-trump-state\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">voting<\/a> to members of the military posted abroad or those who are too sick to vote in person.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Voter I.D.

It&rsquo;s to bring more attention to the issue, so Congress &mdash; and individual states &mdash; can codify it by passing legislation.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has always been a dealmaker. This is part of his strategy. By publicizing an order that lays out &mdash; point by point &mdash; what the issues are, it gives the public a chance to understand the need for specific changes.<\/p>\n<p>Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has already claimed to have <a href=\"https:\/\/mikejohnson.house.gov\/news\/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=2657\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">passed<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/mikejohnson.house.gov\/news\/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=2638\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">enshrined,<\/a> dozens of Trump&rsquo;s executive orders into law.<\/p>\n<p>Examples include defunding public media, Department of Government Efficiency cuts, a golden dome missile defense shield, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nolte-70-want-increased-domestic-oil-production-only-18-oppose-2\/\" title=\"Nolte: 70% Want Increased Domestic Oil Production, Only 18% Oppose\">increased domestic oil production<\/a>. All of which began as executive orders.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to elections, this is something the House and Senate should embrace. Despite certain limitations on federal involvement, the GOP might do well to pass several voting reform packages and take their chances with a friendly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/scotus-shuts-activist-court-clears-way-trump-begin-deportations-third-party-countries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Supreme Court<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, this executive order might push local factions of the Republican Party to mirror Trump&rsquo;s format in vital swing states. Additionally, the president is using this order to speak directly to the American people.<\/p>\n<p>In certain states, all it takes is the approval of the voters to change how elections are conducted. Back in April, Wisconsin voted for a constitutional amendment requiring voter ID with almost 63 percent favoring the measure, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/ballotpedia.org\/Wisconsin_Question_1,_Require_Voter_Photo_ID_Amendment_(April_2025)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ballotpedia<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Having an ID to cast your ballot is common sense. People are asked to provide identification to drive, travel, rent a car, pickup a check, get a job, sign up for clubs, and much more.<\/p>\n<p>Why shouldn&rsquo;t you have to identify yourself when voting?<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewresearch.org\/politics\/2025\/08\/22\/majority-of-americans-continue-to-back-expanded-early-voting-voting-by-mail-voter-id\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew Research poll<\/a>&nbsp;from August stated that, &ldquo;More than nine-in-ten Republicans [95 percent] and about seven-in-ten Democrats [71 percent] favor requiring all voters to show government-issued photo identification to vote.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to mail-in voting, having a shorter chain of custody to reduce the chance of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/republicans-move-clamp-voter-fraud-two-biggest-states-nation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fraud<\/a> is also prudent, especially now that the pandemic is over.<\/p>\n<p>Allowing military personnel or sick individuals to cast absentee ballots has worked in the past &mdash; and would work again.<\/p>\n<p>Just like on the issue of crime, Trump is staking out a popular position and offering solutions, thereby forcing Democrats to oppose the will of the people to their own detriment.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position: relative;\">\n<div class=\"ff-fancy-header-container\"> \t\t\t \t<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-submit-correction inner-content\">\n<div class=\"correction-form\">\n<form style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"sc-name-field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* Name<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc--field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* <\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<label>* Message<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t<textarea name=\"message\" required><\/textarea> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"required-message\" style=\"display: none; padding-bottom: 15px;\">* All fields are required.<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault(); firefly_sc();\"> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"firefly-sc-confirm\" style=\"display: none;\">Success!<\/div>\n<\/p><\/form>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> \t\t<script> \t\t\tfunction firefly_sc() { \t\t\t\tif( typeof window.captchaPublicKey==typeof undefined ){ \t\t\t\t\tconsole.error('window.captchaPublicKey is not defined'); \t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\tgrecaptcha.execute( window.captchaPublicKey, { action: 'submit_correction' } ).then( function( token ) { \t\t\t\t\tvar opts={ \t\t\t\t\t\taction:    'firefly_sc_submit', \t\t\t\t\t\tname:      document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"name\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\t:     document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tmessage:   document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"message\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tpost_id:   firefly_post_id, \t\t\t\t\t\tcap_token: token \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\tvar inputs=[ 'name', '', 'message' ];  \t\t\t\t\tfor( var i=0; i <inputs.length; i++ ) if( !
