I wish he’d stop with the empty threats. States control their own elections, even for federal office.

In Texas state constitution prohibits mailing everyone absentee ballots. But it’s not stopping the Democrats from pushing forward through the courts even though it is against the state constitution.

I can’t speak for the other 49 states but I’m sure the actions are the same in every state because the Democrats are trying to balance stuff in ballot harvesting and steal the 2020 election in unconstitutional means.

So if rogue secretaries of State violate their state constitutions how is that leading states determine their elections?

I must have missed when the Michigan state assembly passed an such laws.
Diktats from Whitmer do not equal laws.
The Michigan state assemblies are already suing Whitmer in court over her unconditional lockdown diktats and stand a good chance of winning just like they won in Wisconsin.
You are going to have to find another way to cheat.

I live in Michigan. Shouldn’t I have a say? This has been authorized without anyone being asked. Surely there’s recourse at the federal level?

Yes, and they are addicted to cash from Uncle Sugar.

If that can be used to blackmail them into raising their drinking age, it can be used to blackmail them into doing just about anything else.

Embrace the Suck, Democrats.

Then why not just leave the opposition off the ballot if they control it?

Yes but not by fiat of a single official, the voting rules are set by the state legislature. It may be up for debate that Trump could withhold funding, but I wouldn’t bet against it. There are lots of things in play.

But, not when they involve a Federal “vehicle” to facilitate it.
