MSNOW: Slotkin Talks Hegseth Ouster, Military at Polling Places

Published | Video Starts at 06:40

I want to know both what led you to writing your letters to Hagseth and Kaine and what you've heard back. Yeah, you know, I think For better part of a year, myself and Senator Mark Kelly and others have been focused on the way that Hegseth and others have been politicizing the military and asking them to do things that are potentially way outside the legal bounds of what they are trained to do. And one of the most important things for me is keeping the military out of any role in our voting, in our polling locations, touching ballots, touching voting machines. (06:40–06:58)

CLAIM
