Alex Padilla: “The law is clear: states and Congress have authority over our elections — not the President and certainly not the Postal…”

The Trump administration is afraid and desperate. Their attempts to take over our elections will fail.

This is still very much a battleground district for California and for the country.

This lawsuit has no legal basis or evidence behind it and is nothing more than a blatant abuse of power designed to sow distrust in our elections and threaten Americans’ right to vote.

No matter how many lawsuits they file or how many election officials they threaten, they do not have the authority to interfere.
