Ben Ginsberg and Bob Bauer, former political rivals, are working together to counter President Trump's push for federal control over state elections. They co-chair the Bipartisan American Election Project, which advocates for nonpartisan election administration. The project's first action is filing amicus briefs in lawsuits over the Trump administration's efforts to obtain state voter rolls. Ginsberg and Bauer argue that the Constitution delegates election administration to the states. The project is joined by other notable election law experts, including former Biden campaign lawyer Dana Remus and prominent Republican litigator Michael Carvin. The group plans to grow and involve itself in state and local election issues.
