We get an update on elections and voting rights in the United States from Mother Jones<\/em>‘s national voting rights correspondent, Ari Berman, who warns of President Donald Trump’s escalating attempts to \u201ctry to claim dictatorial power\u201d and commit an \u201cunprecedented intervention\u201d into the 2026 midterm elections. Whether it takes the form of claims of foreign interference, canceling mail-in voting or requiring proof of citizenship, \u201c[t]he bottom line here is they keep lying about the 2020 election so that they can justify massive interference in the 2026 election,\u201d says Berman. \u201cThat\u2019s something that we all need to be very vigilant about.\u201d<\/p>\n
