Senate Democrats are preparing to force a vote on a bill to override new elections laws in Republican-led states that they say discriminate against minorities, an effort that faces likely defeat.

But the move provides Democrats with another chance to attack Republicans as racist.

Democratic senators were reportedly closing in Monday on a compromise with holdout Sen. Joe Manchin III of West Virginia on a bill similar to one passed by the House in March. The deal would have the federal government set national elections rules, including loosening states’ requirements that voters show ID.

Unconstitutional power grab.

They never go directly at the constitution, they are so used to using 'their' judges and courts to run the country. Just like they could go through the process of repealing the 2nd amendment, they could pursue repealing the 10th amendment. It's what they really want, but can't yet achieve.

[AbolishCSEU]

You do have to admire their tenacity to power grab whilst the GOP-e are ball-less wonders.

If the SCOTUS weasels refuse to act, blood is on their hands. The whole thing will become violent. The recall out here could be w warning sign, Honest election or tar feathers and ropes

This won’t get past SCOTUS. Even Roberts won’t let this one stand.

[Pearfect]

So, once again, Democrats say minorities are too stupid to get voter ID.

[krogers58]

As I recall, the rules of the Senate require a quorem of 51 senators to be present. You think ol Cocaine Mithch isn’t gonna round up the Republicans and go on vacation?

[DoughtyOne]

Would like to think you’re right.

[ptsal]

GOP leaders are mostly assistant democrats.
