Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
We should be focused on making it easier to vote and harder to cheat. S.1 would make it easier to cheat and harder to detect. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
S.1 is NOT ‘for the people.’ It’s for Democratic politicians who are trying to rewrite election law in their favor. It’s nothing but a clear power grab. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Imposes Costly, Burdensome Mandates on States: S.1 requires election officials to take on burdensome/costly changes to their election systems. Even if states have adopted some “reforms” in S.1, they'd have to make changes to their systems to comply with S.1 before next election — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Federalizes Redistricting: S.1 would put in place 1 set of federal rules for redrawing congressional districts, which has traditionally been a role for each state. If someone doesn’t like the commission's work, S.1 provides multiple opportunities for fed courts to draw the maps — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Chills Free Speech: S.1 chills speech through cumbersome and misleading donor disclosures and allows the IRS to look at a group’s ideology when considering whether or not to grant it tax exempt status. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Creates a Partisan FEC: S.1 gets rid of the bipartisan makeup of the Federal Election Commission – giving the party in power an advantage in seats and the ability to control the commission’s agenda. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Provides Government Funding for Campaigns: $6 of fed gov't money would be sent to political candidates for every $1 they raise from small donors. This provision could essentially force Americans to fund candidates they don’t agree with & support attack ads against those they do. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Restricts States’ Ability to Maintain Accurate Voter Rolls: S.1 would restrict states’ ability to remove inaccurate and duplicate registrations from voter rolls. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Mandates Ballot Drop Boxes: Combined w/ unlimited ballot harvesting, drop boxes boost risk of fraud by allowing people other than the voter to drop off marked ballots outside of the view of election officials/poll workers & increase the risk of ballots being stolen or destroyed. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Allows Unlimited Ballot Harvesting: S.1 allows paid campaign operatives to collect ballots. Ballot harvesting is prohibited or limited in some states because it creates the risk of fraud, where harvesters either fake ballots or deceive voters, especially the elderly — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Guts Overwhelmingly Popular State Voter ID Laws: S.1 would render state voter ID laws meaningless by requiring states to allow affidavits in lieu of identification. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
In 800+ pages, Democrats managed to pack a slew of bad policies that would send our election system into chaos and undermine Americans' faith in the system. Here are some of the worst policies in this hyperpartisan bill 🧵 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Democrats have said that S.1 is necessary to increase voting rights, particularly for minorities. But overall turnout in the 2020 election was 66% – the highest share of eligible voters since 1900. And most states had their highest turnout in 40 years. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
S.1 makes election fraud easier to commit and harder to detect by: ❌Allowing unlimited ballot harvesting ❌Undermining overwhelmingly popular voter ID laws ❌Making it more difficult to maintain accurate voter lists — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
S.1 would force a single, partisan view of elections on more than 10,000 jurisdictions across the country. This extreme bill would take control away from state and local officials who are closest to voters and let bureaucrats in Washington make the rules. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Under S.1, a sitting U.S. Senator would be entitled to as much as $80 million in public funds to run campaign ads. That means you could be forced to pay for ads promoting a candidate you don’t support. I offered an amendment to strike this provision from S.1. Dems voted it down. https://t.co/0qZQdlznBQ — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
S.1 is NOT about voting rights. It is a politically-motivated federal takeover of the election system that would make elections more chaotic and less secure. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
S.1 tips the scales in favor of Democrats by politicizing the Federal Election Commission, pouring federal funds into campaigns & chilling free speech. No wonder they're pushing so hard to pass the bill that they’re considering permanently changing the Senate to do it. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
As the top Republican on the committee, I will be challenging Democrats to defend numerous provisions in S.1 that voters overwhelmingly oppose. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Today, the Senate Rules Committee will consider S.1 – Democrats’ sweeping election bill that would give Washington control over how states and localities run elections. https://t.co/4s5qlrIzda — PolitiTweet.org

One of the great strengths of our election system is its diversity. Democrats' sweeping S.1 bill would force a single, partisan view of elections on more than 10,000 jurisdictions across the country. — PolitiTweet.org
Senator Roy Blunt @RoyBlunt
Democrats’ so-called “election reform” bill is nothing more than a partisan takeover of our election system. https://t.co/tWPo7DB1A7 — PolitiTweet.org
