CNN's Brianna Keilar has testy exchange with Arizona state lawmaker over voting rights bill

CNN's Brianna Keilar got into a testy exchange on Friday with Arizona state lawmaker John Kavanaugh (R) over the state's voting rights bill, after Kavanaugh accused her of "spinning the truth" and said that her career "is politics and knows everything."

Keilar responded that she was not "spinning" and that the proposed legislation would disenfranchise voters. She also said it was meant to solve a problem on voter fraud "that doesn't exist."

The discussion was centered around a bill that would take a voter off the state's mail-in voting list if they have not voted in two previous consecutive elections.




The state House bill was passed in a 31-29 vote but was stopped in the Senate after a Republican switched his position to vote against the bill.

I can't do it live unless I get some provider like Sling or Hulu, and I went to Roku so I wouldn't have to pay extra.

Every other news organization has made some accommodations for those of us without cable. CNN is losing viewers by doing this.

trying to overtalk her at every turn. He had nothing to say, just the usual Rethuglican bullshit that there "were irregularities and nothing in this bill disenfranchises voters". He's also got a great bridge to sell if you believe that.
