"It's deeply alarming that President Trump continues to try to undermine free and fair elections. No amount of lies and conspiracy theories can change the fact that our country's elections have repeatedly been proven to be safe and secure. These attacks are intended to intimidate and silence voters. Democrats are leading the way on actually making life better for American families by lowering costs, creating jobs and protecting our freedoms. Ours is a winning message, which is why he is trying to undermine democracy.

"Democratic governors stand ready to fight back against the Trump administration and stop any and all unlawful attacks on every American's constitutional right to vote."
