Trump guts election commission in move seen as increasing his sway over midterms

President Trump has dismantled the U.S. Election Assistance Commission by dismissing its Democratic members and forcing the Republican member to resign, leaving the commission without any members. This move has raised alarms among voting rights activists who fear it could undermine election integrity and increase Trump's influence over the midterm elections. The decision underscores the ongoing tensions around election administration and highlights the broader implications for democratic processes and voter confidence.
