A federal judge in Washington, D.C. has issued a new order freezing President Donald Trump's attempt to limit mail voting for the midterm elections. A previous order from another judge is already before the U.S. Supreme Court. Election officials say they could not implement Trump's new requirements before November. The decision issued late Sunday by U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols is significant because he was nominated by Trump and earlier declined to freeze the president's executive order, saying at the time it was premature. In issuing a preliminary injunction, he wrote that it's now clear many people could lose their ability to vote if it goes into effect.

Some Nevada voters saw a cancelled status online. State officials explain what caused the website issue.
Early voting begins Saturday, Oct. 17, and continues through Friday, Oct. 30, with 18 vote centers open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The decision appears to leave room for additional court challenges that could further slow Trump's order.
