opportunity for legislators to consider that. and then finally, i have also been an advocate for more federal standards. i m not a federal take over elections, by any means. the states obviously run the process. but i do think, the more we can demystify and streamline, and just create standards, the less confusion there will be around even simple issues like voter registration deadlines. so i think there s opportunity there, and do something in a bipartisan way. i would ask you about that in just a second, but let me just go back to election workers that you were talking about for a moment. because they are fundamental to the voting process. you talk about the threats they face. a recent poll found that one and six of those officials have experienced death threats because of their job. 77% say they feel these threats have increased in recent years. talk to me about the specific support they need. you ve got a really good point about accountability, meaning those who make threats shou
