Democrats will stop Trump from trying to nationalize midterms, Jeffries says

House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries stated that Democrats will prevent Donald Trump from interfering in the upcoming midterm elections. Jeffries' comments followed Trump's suggestion that Republicans should "take over the voting," despite the Constitution granting states the power to set election rules. Jeffries accused Trump of attempting to "nationalize" the election to steal it. The Trump administration has been sowing doubt about the integrity of the midterms by filing lawsuits against states and the FBI raided the election office in Fulton County, Georgia. Jeffries also condemned Trump's racist post on Truth Social depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes, calling for an apology. Senator Adam Schiff echoed concerns about Trump's attempts to subvert the election.
