Against the backdrop of global upheaval, the challenges facing the 2020 election landscape continue to change. Now more than ever, with so much at stake, everyone should be confident that their vote counts.
Unfortunately, there are increasing threats to the American public's confidence that our elections are accurate and fair. In addition to recent concerns for public health and safety, we continue to hear evidence of disinformation and election interference. With each new story, more citizens begin to question the institutions essential to the functioning of our democracy.
At CDT, we know that our democracy and elections are under attack, but believe they can be protected - we just have to put in the work.
With your help, CDT is working hard to train election officials on how best to protect the integrity of our elections and ensure accurate results. We are working with platforms to minimize disinformation and to stop bad actors from suppressing voter turnout. We need your help to ensure this work continues.
