The new executive order will require the Department of Homeland Security to create a database of eligible voters in each state, utilizing data from the Social Security Administration, according to CBS News. The U.S. Postal Service will also be required to send absentee ballots to legitimate voters as indicated by the database, with only one envelope for each ballot.
