In recent developments surrounding the upcoming midterm elections in the United States, Democratic leaders have expressed significant concern over former President Donald Trump's attempts to influence the electoral process. Hakeem Jeffries, the Democratic leader in the US House of Representatives, stated on CNN's State of the Union that Democrats will prevent Trump from 'trying to steal this year’s midterm elections.' This statement comes after Trump suggested that Republicans should 'take over the voting,' which Jeffries interpreted as an attempt to 'nationalize the election – translation: steal it.' The Frontier Post and The Guardian both highlight that the US Constitution delegates the power to set election rules to the states, with no authority granted to the president over election administration.
