Freedom House Calls for Leaders to Put Democracy above Partisan Interests

Ballots cast for 2020 US election

In a statement released today, November 6, Freedom House said that all people of good will should stand up for our democracy and honor the will of the voters. To do less would be to debase the United States and place it in the company of authoritarians and rogue regimes.

This echoes our statement from Wednesday that there has been no evidence of mass fraud or malfeasance.

Americans and their leaders must remember that the world is watching.
