The campaign to reelect President Donald Trump has sued New Jersey authorities after Gov. Phil Murphy issued an executive order facilitating widescale mail-in balloting for November’s elections, a practice the president has repeatedly criticized as fraught with fraud risk.

Murphy, a Democrat, on Friday ordered that every voter in New Jersey should be sent a blank ballot ahead of the general election, giving voters the option to vote in-person or by mail amid the pandemic.
