1. State Nellie Gorbea:

   Last week, in my testimony to the Board of Elections, I recommended that the Board of Elections and I co-chair a diverse statewide task force that can help broker solutions ensuring we do not unintentionally disenfranchise any portion of our electorate, my office will work proactively and collaboratively with the Board of Elections and local boards of canvassers to hold a fair and secure election on June 2.

2. Charles Booker:

   It's been hard to vote in Kentucky, for a lot of us, for a long time. What we're seeing now is really a continuation of that, to have a county as big as Jefferson County, with hundreds of thousands of voters and say you can only vote in one location, it's just naturally going to disenfranchise people.

3. Kunal Atit:

   Mike Garcia has made it clear from the start that Mike Garcia is in lockstep with Donald Trump and will put Trump's needs before the district, leaving CA-25 residents to' fend for themselves,' now Mike Garcia is working with the President to weave baseless conspiracy theories to disenfranchise African American and Latino voters and cast doubt on the integrity of our election. This behavior shows just how out of touch Mike Garcia is with our values.

4. Ken Paxton:

   I applaud the Supreme Court for following the law and refusing to order mail-in balloting that the Texas Legislature has forbidden. Universal mail-in ballots, which are notoriously vulnerable to fraud, would only lead to greater election fraud and disenfranchise lawful voters, state election officials have many options available to safely and securely hold elections without risking widespread fraud. My office will continue to fight for safe, free and fair elections.

5. Ben Sasse:

   Every public official has a responsibility to tell the truth, all the clever arguments and rhetorical gymnastics in the world won't change the fact that this January 6th effort is designed to disenfranchise millions of Americans simply because they voted for someone in a different party. We ought to be better than that. If we normalize this, we're going to turn American politics into a Hatfields and McCoys endless blood feud -- a house hopelessly divided.
