Title: Trump voting restrictions dead in Congress
Post by Armchair_Politician on Aug 9^th, 2026 at 11:11am

Good news for those who want a free and fair election, not so good for Trump who wants an election rigged heavily in his favour. Hopefully the midterms are disastrous for Republicans.

Excellent.

'The summer exit confirmed what had been apparent for weeks: that Republicans lacked the votes to pass the voting restrictions the president has made a top priority.'
