A new requirement in New York that will take effect this weekend is set to grant Democrat Letitia James widespread power over the state’s election process, a New York election attorney said.
"Nobody is really talking about it or what a big effect it's going to have," Joseph T. Burns , partner at the law firm Holtzman Vogel , told Fox News Digital .
The new rule requires certain jurisdictions in the Empire State to request preclearance from the attorney general or a designated court to make election-related decisions.
Burns said it's possible the new rule, which will go into effect roughly 40 days before the presidential election, could cause some hiccups at the polls this year .
Local commissioners would then choose a new poll site before filing an application with the AG ’s office.
Fox News Digital reached out to James ’ office regarding the upcoming requirement and Burns ’ concerns in the op-ed.
