Sen. Tommy Tuberville and Fox Business host Larry Kudlow warned that failure to address election integrity concerns and border security could cost Republicans future elections, arguing that current voting systems and identification rules have undermined public confidence.
The discussion focused on proposals supported by President Donald Trump, including eliminating voting machines, ending mail-in ballots, and requiring same-day voting.
Tuberville said those reforms are necessary to restore trust and prevent what he described as ongoing election problems.

“And then, of course, President Trump wants same day voting, mail ballots, get rid of these voting machines,” Tuberville said.
“There’s a half a dozen people, whether it’s the House or Senate, Larry, that are up here as we speak, that did not get elected. It was all bogus, because we’ve seen the evidence.”
Tuberville warned that if Congress does not act, the situation will deteriorate further in the upcoming election cycle.
“And if we don’t straighten that out, you’re going to see a lot more of it this fall, and it’s just going to get worse and worse,” he said.

He said voters are increasingly frustrated with Washington and are demanding concrete action on two specific issues.
“With the American people saying, Listen, we got all y’all up there, and you don’t do anything to straighten it out,” Tuberville said.
“We want closed borders, and we want fair elections, those two things they are demanding.”
Tuberville said Republicans must respond to those demands or face political consequences.
“And as Republicans, we had better to listen to them and do that, or we’re going to lose next fall,” he said.
Kudlow echoed concerns about election procedures, particularly the lack of strict voter identification requirements in many states. He cited his own voting experience as an example.
“Lot of states, you know, don’t even have an ID picture, and that, by the way, I vote in the state of Connecticut, you don’t need an ID, you don’t need a picture,” Kudlow said.
“You could show them a credit card.”
Kudlow said such standards create vulnerabilities in the election process.
“Anybody can get a credit card, any kind of credit card, you could show them a debit card, and that’s sufficient,” he said.
He also pointed to broader concerns about identification documents, including driver’s licenses.
“Many states driver’s licenses. Well, anybody can get a driver’s license,” Kudlow said.
“Some states are allowing illegals to get driver’s license for commercial purposes.”
Kudlow said legislation such as the SAVE Act is intended to address those issues by tightening standards and preventing non-citizens from accessing documents that could be used for voting.
“So the Save Act would eliminate that stuff,” he said.
“It’s very important, but you got to make the case.”
Kudlow added that proponents of election reform need to communicate the issue more forcefully to the public.
“I don’t hear many people making the case,” he said.
