The ElectionsClause provides that the states will prescribe the ``Times,Places and Manner'' of congressional elections, and thatCongress may ``make or alter'' the states' regulations at anytime, except as to the places of choosing Senators. Thecourts have held that the Elections Clause grants Congressbroad authority to override state regulations in this area.Therefore, while the Elections Clause contemplates both stateand federal authority to regulate congressional elections,Congress' authority is paramount to that of the states.[Page H3759]]]> hsha00 Committee on House Administration House Standing Referred to 2013-06-18T14:01:00Z 113 2403 HR 2013-06-17 Referred to the House Committee on House Administration.
