"What do you mean by the federal government intervening in the election? That's the first I've ever heard of it, but maybe I misunderstood your question... Well, if what you mean by intervening in the election is that we want everybody to have a voter ID before voting in this country, yes, we should be doing that."
"Trump has talked about nationalizing elections recently. He was referring to comments Trump made last month, when he urged Republicans to nationalize the voting process in order to block crooked Democrat-led states from allowing illegal immigrants to vote."
"President Trump has publicly backed the act, but the GOP is currently struggling to find a way to get it through the Senate."
Vice President JD Vance responded to a reporter's question about potential federal intervention in the 2026 midterm elections during a Michigan campaign appearance. When asked about promises to prevent federal interference, Vance questioned what intervention meant and pivoted to voter identification requirements. He stated the administration supports requiring voter IDs before voting and emphasized the importance of passing the SAVE Act, which would mandate ID for federal elections. Vance made light of the situation by joking that Trump could send Secretary of State Marco Rubio to count ballots. The crowd responded enthusiastically to Vance's remarks about voter ID requirements.
