Trump Eyes A National Emergency to Steal The Midterms
Description
The constitutional answer is straightforward. Article I gives Congress limited authority over federal elections, which states and county officials actually administer. Article II gives the president none.
The political picture explains the interest. Nate Silver's model has Democrats around 85 percent to take the House and better than even odds in the Senate. Trump's approval is at record lows and Republican enthusiasm is weak with him off the ballot.
Jacob Soboroff covered the interview, and Eddie Glaude discussed the restriction strategy with Alicia Menendez. Hawk's larger worry is the eight or nine weeks between election night and swearing in, and his ask is simple: register, check that registration weekly, and have an actual plan to vote.
