You obviously don't understand the Constitution. The Elections Clause (Article 1, Section 4, Clause 1) does not give the states SOLE determination of how elections happen. Here's the language. Read it and learn:
"The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of choosing Senators."
You also don't understand recent US history. Following passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and until the SCOTUS issued its 2013 Shelby Country v. Holder opinion, the feds required many Southern states to obtain "pre-clearance" of their voting rules from the DOJ to ensure there was no voter discrimination. How the fuck did such federal oversight occur for 48 years if, as you claim, states have SOLE determination over the vote? Please explain.
We don't have to imagine this. It's already happened! Did you forget Nancy Pelosi's HR-1 "For the People Act"? It passed the House in 2021, before dying in the Senate. Look it up!
Nancy's bill would have inter alia limited the ability of the states to clean up their voting rolls, guaranteed the right to vote for all felons, and required every state to offer automatic same-day registration, a minimum of 15 days' early voting and no-excuse absentee/mail-in balloting.
You probably think it's ok for the Dems to attempt to rig federal voting rules for their benefit, but it's an outrage whenever the GOP fights back and tries to turn off some of the spigots enabling voting fraud.
The role under section 1 relating to congresses in put is to allow for changes that "could come" from Congress but the purpose was to not suppress votes. States continue to have control over how votes occur etc and when.
Clause (Article 1, Section 4, Clause 1)
+6
Article I, Section 4, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution, known as the Elections Clause, grants state legislatures the authority to prescribe the times, places, and manner of holding congressional elections. It simultaneously gives Congress the power to override or alter these state regulations by law, except for the places of choosing Senators.
Key Aspects of the Elections Clause:
State Authority: States primarily manage the mechanics of federal elections, including voter registration, district mapping, and election dates.
Congressional Oversight: Congress may establish uniform rules for federal elections that override state procedures.
Exceptions: While Congress can regulate most aspects, it cannot change the physical location of where Senators are chosen.
Examples of Federal Action: Under this authority, Congress passed the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act and the Motor Voter Law.
This clause ensures that while states run the elections, Congress holds the ultimate authority to prevent state-level voter suppression or to create national uniformity.
All states confirm to basics on voting as it relates to ballot integrity and timing etc. the Trump administration would love to just try to influence RED states to manipulate their roles to their benefit and Trump specifically is trying to put a false impression on lacking integrity.
BUT
Congress would have to get involved with any decisions, and they're not going to change anything more materially. Which means the States retain the pure control over the vast majority of what happens when it comes to voting.
The part about changing laws and defining that they can only be changed by Congress was to protect both the states and to ensure that there is conformity to process. It's the wish of Red hats to have conformity to who gets voted for.
Meaning- No Trump EO is gonna change a fuck one thing
Why are you answering this? My comments were directed at eyecu2, not you.
I just pointed out how the DOJ exercised historical oversight of election processes in multiple Southern states between 1965 and 2013. Which proves you're wrong about the DOJ having no authority over elections.

I'm scratching my head trying to figure out what you're saying...
Are you conceding that states do not have "SOLE determination of how elections happen" (as you claimed in post #216)? If so, just come out and say it! Don't pussyfoot around and insist that, well, they "retain the pure control over the vast majority of what happens" lol! That's a crawfishing answer.
And you still haven't addressed Nancy Pelosi's 2021 "For the People Act". Wasn't that a Dem power grab that sought to federalize voting rules in all 50 US states? And doesn't that failed legislation shoot down your claim that Dems have never attempted to "change voting systems, processes, or who counts the vote..."?

There are “valued posters” here that couldn’t pass an 8th grade Civics test. They don’t know anything about the Supremacy Clause. Which I schooled Jazzy on. He just doesn’t get it. Eye is always in the tall weeds with long winded posts which are complete twaddle. Mindless and false. The Federal Government has established Federal Election laws. They supersede State election laws.
“The Supremacy Clause is a part of the U.S. Constitution (Article VI, Clause 2) that establishes that federal law takes precedence over state laws when there is a conflict. This means that state courts must follow federal laws and the Constitution, which are considered the "supreme Law of the Land."

Great... they're also "investigating" trump's diaper to see if it needs changed yet.
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING will come of this nonsense. They can "investigate" all they want. They've had 5+ years to produce even one iota of proof. They have nothing.
I would say MAGA is going to be very disappointed very soon, but they'll just shrug their shoulders and move onto to next shiny object King Dipshit dangles in front of their dumb fucking faces.

You can set your watch to it.
when will the 2 week period be up so we can see the lid blowing off this GA election?? I mean y'all said it was about to get real, and big things were coming- Well.....were waiting.

... They are waiting for a Hearing - that the Fulton County Officials
are tryin' like Jack-the-Lad to slow-play everything.
... Kemp, Raffensperger, and Fulton County Officials surely KNOW
what's coming LEGALLY for them, but sone of them are up for
re-election this year and are Primary candidates.
.. But this Georgia 2020 Election issue is NOT going away...
Why is this so important to you? The 2020 election was not "rigged". There's never been any proof of these idiotic claims. I guess it's just a bridge too far to admit Dear Leader (whose never once had a 50% approval rating) lost, huh?
Literally a deflection of votes to disenfranchise GA voters or any group who like a group of uppity black, somalis, or even whites that could be thorn under a GOP Microscope to claim a false flag on voting. The GOP plan is to discredit good voting rolls and create turmoil and sow a single seed of doubt....that's the plan. Project 2025 eliminates voting without advanced notice of voters.....just what nefarious shit would a few rednecks create to slow or eliminate voting......the answer is actually anything and everything.
Fuck your ID, fuck your rolls and let people vote as they have for 80 plus years. Even Trumpy votes absentee ballot.
If it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me. I may ask a couple hundred somalies to see if they'd like to vote too....as they still count towards the census.
Fuck all these short little tirade driven weasels...were on a mission
