Recently, the Waunakee Tribune put out an op-ed claiming elections in Wisconsin are so secure that only a few felons and other ineligible voters slip through the cracks. Is this the new standard? Is this what it takes for a voter to trust that their ballot was cast in a safe and secure election? The...
On the afternoon of July 21, the Democratic Party effectively stole an election. Fully 87% of the vote in this year’s Democratic presidential primaries — 14.4 million of the ballots cast — were discarded, sending shockwaves through the political landscape. These voters’ choice for president will not be on the ticket in November. President Joe Biden is no longer the presumptive Democratic...
President Joe Biden and the Democrats talk a lot these days about the need to “defend democracy.” But what does that mean? A president is the sole U.S. elected official chosen by all the people. But in recent decades, a large unelected bureaucracy wielding great power sees the people’s government as its exclusive domain. As...
A growing number of states have withdrawn their membership from the Electronic Registration Information Center, known as ERIC, which is used by state governments for voter list maintenance.

Last week, the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) filed a lawsuit on behalf of Julie Adams, a Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections (BRE) member, against the Fulton County BRE for interfering with Adams’s duty to review and ensure the integrity of elections under the Georgia election code.

Recently, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) announced a new bill with former President Donald Trump addressing crucial issues surrounding noncitizen voting. The bill, authored by Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas), who has previously drafted similar legislation, would require proof of citizenship to register to vote. Already some outlets are falsely assuming that any legislation...
Recent efforts to ban non-citizen voting in the United States have been met with ridicule and disdain by the Left in coffee shops and classrooms across America. Liberals point out that non-citizen voting is already banned but, while this may be true, those laws only require people to check a box on the federal voter...
At the detriment of our public discourse and the accuracy and fairness of our elections, conversations regarding verifiable fraud in the voting process have been relegated to either always being believed or always shunned by the loudest, most hyper-partisan voices in the room.

Voter confidence in Georgia is at an all-time low, especially in certain counties with a history of election integrity issues.
