The Trump administration is trying to establish federal control over election processes that are usually managed by states, although these efforts have faced serious legal and legislative problems.

川普政府試圖對通常由州政府管理的選舉過程建立聯邦控制權，不過這些嘗試面臨了嚴重的法律與立法問題。

The administration's plan is to use federal agencies to influence who can vote and how ballots are sent. For example, the Department of Homeland Security was asked to collect citizenship data to check voter lists. Additionally, an executive order attempted to allow the Postal Service to stop delivering mail-in ballots to states that refused to share voter information. At the same time, the administration pressured lawmakers to pass the SAVE America Act, which would require voters to provide proof of citizenship and identification. To push this law through, the executive branch threatened to block other important bills, claiming that the situation is a national emergency.

政府的計劃是利用聯邦機構來影響誰能投票以及選票如何寄出。例如，國土安全部被要求收集公民身份數據以檢查選民名單。此外，一項行政命令試圖允許郵政局停止向拒絕分享選民資訊的州寄送郵寄選票。與此同時，政府向立法者施壓要求通過《拯救美國法案》(SAVE America Act)，該法案將要求選民提供公民身份證明與身份證件。為了強行通過這項法律，行政部門威脅將阻攔其他重要法案，並聲稱目前的情況是國家緊急狀態。

However, these plans have faced strong opposition from the courts. Federal judges have emphasized that, according to the Constitution, states have the right to manage their own elections. Specifically, Judge Sparkle L. Sooknanan ruled that using the immigration database violated privacy laws and led to the wrong people being removed from voter lists. Furthermore, the Supreme Court supported state laws that allow the counting of ballots sent by mail, and Judge Indira Talwani blocked the Postal Service's restrictions because the agency lacked the legal power to implement them.

然而，這些計劃面臨了法院的強烈反對。聯邦法官強調，根據憲法，各州有權管理自己的選舉。具體而言，法官 Sparkle L. Sooknanan 裁定，使用移民數據庫違反了隱私法，並導致錯誤地將不應被剔除的人從選民名單中刪除。此外，最高法院支持允許計算郵寄選票的州法律，而法官 Indira Talwani 則攔截了郵政局的限制措施，因為該機構缺乏實施這些措施的法律權力。

Finally, the chances of these laws passing are low due to disagreements among Republicans and practical problems. Senator Thom Tillis argued that the SAVE America Act cannot be put into practice before the next elections because there is no funding and it takes over a year to set up voter ID systems. Despite these concerns, some Republicans still support the bill, while House Speaker Mike Johnson believes the upcoming elections are a critical moment for the administration's supporters.

最後，由於共和黨內部的分歧以及實際操作問題，這些法律通過的機會較低。參議員 Thom Tillis 主張，《拯救美國法案》在下次選舉前無法付諸實行，因為缺乏資金，且建立選民身份證明系統需要一年以上時間。儘管有這些憂慮，部分共和黨人仍然支持該法案，而眾議院議長 Mike Johnson 則認為即將到來的選舉是政府支持者的關鍵時刻。

The federal government continues to try to gain more control over election rules, but court rulings and practical legislative concerns are keeping the current system of state-led administration in place.

聯邦政府繼續嘗試獲取更多對選舉規則的控制權，但法院的裁決與實際立法憂慮使現有由州政府主導的管理體系得以維持。
