ALAN TACHER: This morning, the Senate prepares to vote on the electoral bill. Democratic legislators come together in order to achieve its passage, arguing that they want to guarantee the right to vote for more people in elections to come. BUT, this does not persuade the Republican Party, which, as of this moment, seems willing to do whatever it takes to block this bill as well as any other bill that expands the role of the federal government in elections.

Fourteen states have passed laws that restrict the votes of Hispanic and African-American minorities. The Democratic bill did not attain the 60 votes required to make it to the Senate.
