A former federal judge is sharing his expertise on voting by mail. John Jones, currently the president of Dickinson College, has experience with voter suppression cases. He served as a federal court judge for nearly two decades after being nominated by President George W. Bush and confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Jones presided over a notable case prior to the 2020 presidential election, in which a conservative group alleged that Pennsylvania's election official allowed deceased individuals to remain on voter rolls. Jones denied the group's request to stop these individuals from voting. Further details on Jones' experience and insights are available from the source, including an interview where he discusses his decision and its aftermath.
