There is bipartisan support in the Senate for the Secure Elections Act, sponsored by Sens. James Lankford (R-Okla.) and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) However, Republican leaders have thus far refused to pass the bill out of committee after organizations like the National Association of Secretaries of State and the White House complained about federal mandates around grant funding and auditing.

Some Democratic lawmakers say the White House, not a lack of votes, are the chief obstacles to passing election security reform.

"I don't make political predictions that often, but I bet if [the Secure Elections Act] got to the floor it would get at least 80 votes in the Senate and with the Democrats taking control of the House, it would clearly pass the House," said Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) on Dec. 7. "The objection has come from the White House and what I would hate to have is some other event where we see…an intervention to then force us to act."
