The right to vote—and to have justified confidence in our elections—has always been a hard-won struggle. As the federal government continues to de-prioritize election security and dismantle vital infrastructure supporting local election offices, Verified Voting’s work is more urgent than ever.
🔗 Watch this short clip from a recent briefing, where our President Pamela Smith shares: “We’re standing in the gap to defend elections. We need your support more than ever at this critical time. This democracy is worth defending.” ⤵️

Voters expect to be able to cast a secret ballot and have the assurance of a secure, reliable count. It takes work—every election cycle, no matter the outcome—to uphold those principles. That’s why Verified Voting exists.
Our organization was founded in 2004 to advocate for the use of paper ballots. Today, with most voters using paper, sound post-election audits are more important than ever to ensure that every vote is counted accurately—because verifiable evidence is the best way to build lasting trust in our elections.
As we rally to meet the escalating needs of this moment, we’re asking you to join us. Will you make a gift today to protect the integrity of our elections?
Thank you for defending democracy with us.
With gratitude,
Ellie Yearns
Development Director
