States that refuse to implement the Trump administration’s sweeping new election changes risk losing tens of millions of dollars in federal funding, CNN reported on Monday.
The changes are meant to root out election fraud — which remains relatively rare — while giving the federal government greater influence over how states run elections.
“Over the past 18 months, the administration has been going after election fraud, despite little evidence that there’s any sort of widespread issue here,” said CNN’s Gabe Cohen on Monday’s The Situation Room. “Now, what it appears they’re doing is trying to use Homeland Security funding as leverage in that fight.”
“So, what we’re talking about here are these large grant programs that are run through the Department of Homeland Security,” Cohen said. “This year alone, they’re set to deliver about $1 billion out to states. It is one of the key tools that the federal government has to help cities and states prepare for terror attacks, cyber security incidents, major disasters — cities and states consider this really critical funding. Well, now, what the administration is saying is, if you want all of that funding, you’re going to have to implement these mandatory election changes, otherwise, you’re going to have to forfeit 20% of your grants, which could, for a lot of places, mean millions of dollars gone.”
