Several Trump administration efforts to change voting rules before the US midterm elections have faced court challenges.
Most recently, the Supreme Court rejected an attempt to stop more than 20,000 mail ballots from being counted in California.
On Monday, the court denied Trump’s request to block the count. The ruling came hours after he said in a nationally televised address that the US economy was performing strongly.
A federal court on Sunday also dismissed a Justice Department lawsuit seeking to prevent Alaska from declaring a winner in its Senate election.
In August, a US court blocked a Trump administration effort to restrict mail voting rules. More than 55 million people have already voted early in person or by mail.
The administration did secure an important legal victory over voter citizenship checks.
It expanded state election officials’ access to the federal Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements immigration database, known as SAVE, to check the citizenship of people on voter rolls.
On September 25, the Supreme Court ruled for the administration, allowing states to compare voter-roll information with the federal database.
The rulings show that courts have blocked several administration moves on voting rules while permitting expanded citizenship verification ahead of the midterms.
The database expansion was intended to let election officials check whether people listed as voters were US citizens.
The California and Alaska rulings were setbacks for the administration, while the SAVE decision provided a significant victory on citizenship verification.
