Dear John,
The Trump Administration recently issued an executive order, “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections.” Despite its name, the order does nothing to protect our elections—and instead threatens to undermine the very systems that safeguard them.
At Verified Voting, we’ve been defending secure and verifiable elections for over 20 years. We know the technology, the laws, and what’s truly at stake. That’s why we’re breaking down some of what this executive order really does—and doesn’t do—when it comes to election technology in our latest blog ([link removed] ) :
Read "Understanding the election tech implications in the Trump Administration’s executive order" ([link removed])
💡Key takeaways include:
* The executive order—if implemented—would upend the constitutional framework that ensures states administer elections, creating unnecessary uncertainty for election officials and confusion for voters
* It calls for voting system requirements that, in many cases, are already in place ([link removed]) —thanks to years of advocacy and progress championed by Verified Voting
* It ignores the very real problem of how states and local jurisdictions would pay for the sweeping changes it demands
* It leaves out real solutions for secure and verifiable elections, like sound post-election audits ([link removed]) and support for election officials
