Coons Supports Centralized Control of Elections by Feds

Chris Coons of Delaware issued this statement into the Congressional Record supporting his effort to centralize more control over state elections with the federal government, this time cloaked with the stated purpose of shortening lines.

Among the bad ideas in the legislation that will never pass:

1. Mandatory early voting on the states imposed by federal law.
2. Mandatory no-excuse absentee voting imposed by the federal government on states.
3. Mandatory same day voter registration imposed by a federal government mandate.
