There are ballots down there.

So look, legal observers have already made comment that this would be unconstitutional.

The Constitution is very clear that states are in control of our elections.

We don't really have a national election.

We have 50 different elections during the presidential years.

So even if President Trump were to issue such an executive order, which many

anticipate he will, coming from an ally that he went to military school with, a pro-Trump attorney, who's coming up and conjuring up this legal idea or legal theory.

I think you are going to see if that does land, this is going to be challenged in the courts, obviously by his opponents.

But there is a lot of nervous feelings around this.

The president may try to declare, oh, there's foreign interference.

There's a national emergency, no more mail-in ballots, and X, Y, and Z, right?

So rather than going through the legislative process, which is very difficult, you have Republicans like Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, who would not necessarily be along with the Save Act.

Even Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the former Senate Majority Leader,

apparently has misgivings about that legislation in the SAVE Act as well.

And President Trump has made it clear in the past that when he doesn't get his way via Congress, he'll simply pull out his pen and do as he pleases.

So this has got a lot of nervous tension here between now and the midterms because of President Trump's refusal to acknowledge previous election results, his efforts to overturn that 2020 election, but also, Dana, Congress not going along with him, even Republican allies not going along with him on these issues.

Right.

The showdown in Texas on both sides, on the Democratic and Republican side.

Let's start with the Democrats, because I think that's the one that's going to be the more interesting in terms of personalities.

You have Congressman Jasmine Crockett going up against State Representative James Tallarico.
