Senate Adds To House Bill Vote Plan for Federal Ballot
The Senate approved attaching the federal voting ballot proposal to the “states rights” voting bill by a 44 to 40 vote. The plan would require overseas and military ballots to be federal while leaving handlings of armed service voting to states. The move signals a push to resolve service vote issues via a conference between Senate and House members. The administration’s federal war ballot idea would give federal ballots precedence, facing strong Southern opposition and a second defeat of the Tru V amendment by 46 to 41. Opponents warned the amendment could revive poll tax provisions by syncing federal ballots with state law.
