Election officials ask for more federal money but say voting is secure in their states

Top election officials from two presidential swing states are pleading for more federal money even as they say they're confident in their preparations for November's vote. The Arizona and Michigan secretaries of state said during a House Administration Committee hearing on Wednesday that they need continued funding to improve election security, replace aging machines, hire personnel and upgrade voter registration systems. Still, they and other election officials said they're doing everything they can to help eligible voters participate and keep ineligible voters out of the process. Republicans pointed to their SAVE Act, a bill pushing for proof-of-citizenship to register to vote, as one effort to fund election security.
