Donald Trump has called for the Republican Party to nationalise elections.  

He made the statement during his appearance on the podcast of former deputy FBI director Dan Bongino, saying the Party should seek to take over voting in at least 15 places. 

Elections are primarily run by state law, with voting administrated by local officials across the United States.  

US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking that nationalising the election would go against the Constitution, which says elections are governed by state law, not by any party in power.
