Trump and Republicans are testing how far they can go to undermine free and fair elections because they can't win on a level playing field, Schumer said.

Many Democratic lawmakers have recently raised alarms about redistricting in states like Tennessee and Alabama, where they have accused Republicans of disappearing Black-majority districts."
"We're acting early and at scalelaunching the largest election protection effort in the countryto expose these schemes, stop voter suppression, and make sure the American peoplenot politiciansdecide our elections, Schumer said.

"He wrote: Palestinian Chuck Schumer is hiring Eric Holder, famous for handing guns to Mexican cartels under the Barack Hussein Obama administration, as part of a Democrat-led Election Integrity Group that will no doubt try to suppress Republican voters, and interfere in our Elections. Furthermore, Marc Elias, a terrible lawyer with a horrible track record, is also involved."
