This is perhaps the single biggest thing in terms of bipartisan support, both sides agree on strengthening cyber security against hacking, and the need for hard ballot back ups and secure machines.
Yet McConnell says there will be no vote or debate allowed on these issues...this is pretty hard to explain rationally.
Increasing cyber security will make it more difficult for the Russians to muck with our elections and this would put the republicans, particularly Putins Pumpkinfuhrer at a disadvantage. It isn’t really difficult to see why McConnell is blocking the legislation, he is simply putting party and Pumpkinfuhrer before the well being and security of his country.
