Elizabeth Warren unveiled a sweeping plan to give the federal government a far bigger role in setting the rules for elections, rather than deferring to states and localities

Democrat Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday unveiled a sweeping plan to give the federal government a far bigger role in setting the rules for elections, rather than deferring to states and localities.

"[T]he Constitution gives Congress the tools to regulate the administration of federal elections," Warren wrote in a Medium post. "It’s time to pick up those tools and use them.

Some conservatives will likely oppose the plan because it attempts to undo most of the voter ID laws in the states and would empower the federal government at the expense of states and localities. Other conservatives will almost certainly raise objections because of the plan's cost and the new taxes it would require.

So she's for rigging the system. What a shock.

Just another globalist idea taking away state's rights.

BOOOORRRRIIIINNNNGGGG.

Why are you so against the Federal voting oversight that makes sure everyone in the country have equal voting opportunities and expectations!

This makes sense for national elections.

This story is interesting.

How many things has she funded at this point with this ultra millionaire's tax?

Sorry, I believe in states rights for voting. Still, if she gets the nomination I will vote for her. We can't divide the vote and let Trump win.

this way the government (who is a DEMOCRAT Super pact) can BE SURE the Democrats win ... who what a novel idea ... these Communist are so shallow & transparent ... NOT the brightest bulbs on the shelf

Another step in her platform that leads to the same place: fed govt control. It's damn near cradle to grave already. Now she starts stripping state rights. Wake the hell up people. She's pushing lifetime govt dependency.

at this point..we got fix the broken system.. we now have a Russian ASSET in OFFICE.. .China if your listening..

Not in America!
