Biden's Vote Speech Is Slammed By A Top Republican As Unpresidential.

Biden's Vote Speech Is Slammed By A Top Republican As Unpresidential.

Mitch McConnell, the top Republican in the Senate, called US President Joe Biden's speech on voting rights "incoherent" and "profoundly unpresidential."

Mr. McConnell remarked on the Senate floor, "I've known, liked, and personally appreciated Joe Biden for many years."

"Last night, I didn't recognize the man on the podium."

Mr. Biden made the statements one day after delivering a furious speech in Atlanta asking for a complete overhaul of the US electoral system.

The president indicated he supported adjustments that would allow his party's proposed electoral system overhaul to pass without the opposition Republicans' approval.

In order to approve most bills in the Senate, a 60 percent majority is required.

Mr. Biden called the effort to approve the bill a "fight for the spirit of America," claiming that the Senate's 60-vote limit, known as the filibuster, had reduced it to "a shadow of its former self."

Because the upper body of Congress is now split 50-50 between the two parties, Mr. Biden's comprehensive election reforms will virtually certainly fail to pass unless that rule is changed.

However, his proposals are being hampered by reservations from two Republican senators, and no Republicans have backed them.
