US REPUBLICANS TORPEDOE A DEMOCRATIC BID TO IMPLEMENT NATION-WIDE ELECTION RULES.

U.S Republicans have torpedoed a Democratic bid to implement nation-wide election rules, a Cherished Priority of President Joe Biden’s Party.

The huge bill-which sought to make it easier for Americans to vote ended up deadlocked 50-50 along party lines.

Mr. Biden said the issue was the fight of his Presidency but some Democrats accused him of not fighting hard enough.

Advocates say the bill would have been the most far reaching election measure since the voting Rights Act of 1965.
