EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Joe Manchin is breaking with Democrats and throwing his weight behind a less far-reaching voting rights bill in lieu of the sweeping Democratic proposal, he tells rachelvscott.

Republicans have vowed to oppose it. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell branded it as"one party takeover of our political system."

"No matter what was brought up it was partisan vote, 9-9," Manchin said."This is one of the most -- I think -- important things that we can do to try to bring our country back together and if we do it in a partisan way, it's not going to be successful I believe."

The other said more people voting is dangerous. I'll let you decide which ones on the side of democracy Only difference is that Democrats are the sole authors of voting rights suppression and power grab centralization. The big lie is from the Democrats, plain and simple. Don’t “both sides” this!
