“The Republicans should say, we want to take over, we should take over the voting, the voting in at least many, 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting,” Trump told Dan Bongino, the former deputy director of the FBI, in a podcast appearance.

[…]

On several occasions, Trump has pledged to change how the country votes, zeroing in on methods he falsely claims lead to fraudulent voting. In August, he said he was going to “lead a movement” to end mail-in ballots, and vowed to sign an executive order banning them, in addition to voting machines. He did not end up signing the order.

The president also kicked off a rare mid-decade redistricting campaign intended to help Republicans win additional US House seats in November’s midterm elections.

    I signed up, but I really have to wonder why they need names and zip codes?

    Seems like an easy target if that information leaks. Trump’s regime would love that list

      Dude… They already know the list. Everybody posts their stupid opinions all over public forums, sometimes anonymous, sometimes with verified identities, and likely very rarely with a vpn. It would take very little for “the government” to compile that list with even more intimate details, and I assume that’s already been done. They know who you are and where you stand. The idea that we can think, much less act, in anonymity is antiquated.
