Despite President Trump and his allies' claims to the contrary, noncitizen #voting remains incredibly rare, as a new CEIR research report affirms. Read the full research review here: https://loom.ly/9kClKbE

Why was DNI Tulsi Gabbard present for the FBI search of #Fulton County's #election office? CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social told CNN that Gabbard's shifting explanations don't hold up: https://loom.ly/YkSrEN0

We know what happened in 2020 in Fulton County, Georgia. So, why did the FBI seize 2020 #election records? CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social explains: "This is less about 2020 than it is about 2026 and 2028."

We are thrilled that the New York Times editorial board included CEIR's Election Official Legal Defense Network (EOLDN) as one of three initiatives "helping to protect election officials and safeguard the [election] process." https://loom.ly/t4VVQr4

The FBI search in Fulton County was related to the 2020 #election, but CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social told CBS News: "It looks like this is much more likely that this is about delegitimizing a future election: 2026 [or] 2028."

What is the legal justification for the FBI search of the Fulton County #elections office? And is there a statute of limitations in the case? CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social has the answers to those questions and more.

"This election has been reviewed more than any election in world history -- the Georgia election in particular." CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social joined CBS News to discuss the FBI search of the Fulton County #elections office.

The #DOJ has sued 24 states and DC in its effort to gain access to sensitive #voter data. But why is this data so important? That question and more are answered in CEIR's latest 60-second explainer video.

Even as the president has floated the idea of canceling the #midterms, thousands of dedicated election officials remain determined to run them. CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social spoke to Votebeat about the upcoming #elections: https://loom.ly/RoRDMfQ#midterms#elections

The #DOJ revealed in a court filing that two #DOGE employees communicated with an advocacy group seeking to “overturn election results in certain states." The news raises more concerns about the government's potential mishandling of Americans' private data.

More than five years after #January6th, election misinformation continues to spread. CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social recently joined CBS News to discuss the need to combat false #election claims.

A California judge has dismissed the DOJ's lawsuit seeking access to the state's #voter data. CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social recently spoke to the Guardian about the #DOJ lawsuits: https://loom.ly/NonCIos

"It keeps getting worse for him." CEIR Executive Director @beckerdavidj.bsky.social spoke to Votebeat about a federal judge's ruling blocking large portions of Trump's executive order on #elections: https://loom.ly/-bmzViM

Florida's governor has called for a special session to redraw the state's #congressional map. CEIR Executive Director @beckerdavidj.bsky.social recently spoke to Politico about the administrative burden of #redistricting: https://loom.ly/4icjjms

The #DOJ has now sued 23 states over access to private #voter data. “What the DOJ is trying to do is something that should frighten everybody across the political spectrum,” CEIR's @beckerdavidj.bsky.social told AP. https://loom.ly/j_JDfs8

“We know what really happened on that day. And yet, there is a danger in forgetting that." CEIR Executive Director @beckerdavidj.bsky.social joined CBS News to mark five years since #January6.

As we mark five years since #January6, the need to protect our #elections is even clearer. CEIR Executive Director @beckerdavidj.bsky.social: “The federal government is positioning itself as the primary destabilizing force in our elections."

As the year comes to a close, we want to say thank you to the thousands of #election officials across the country who work tirelessly every day to ensure our #votes count.

Happy #ElectionDay! And thank you to the thousands of election officials and poll workers helping to ensure a smooth voting process across dozens of states today.

In honor of Pro Bono Week, we want to thank the attorneys who volunteer their time with the Election Official Legal Defense Network (EOLDN) to assist election officials facing threats or harassment simply for doing their jobs. https://loom.ly/5uzCv8Q

As we celebrate National Poll Worker Recruitment Day today, poll workers' service is more vital than ever. One of the best ways to learn about why our elections are secure is to become a part of them, CEIR Executive Director @beckerdavidj.bsky.social said.

Happy National Poll Worker Recruitment Day! Today, CEIR honors those who make our elections possible. "I encourage all of you to serve your communities and volunteer to be a poll worker." -CEIR Executive Director @beckerdavidj.bsky.social

So after years of bluster, incl yesterday on the courthouse steps, Lindell joins the long list of others (Giuliani, Lake, Fox News) who, when offered the chance to present evidence - in court - of their claims of alleged election fraud, conceded and ran away.

“The ability of the DOJ to enforce laws that protect the American people from discrimination, from fraud, from illegal activity, is being decimated,” said David Becker of @electioninnov.bsky.social, who worked in the DOJ under Presidents Clinton and W. Bush. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Judge Kollar-Kotelly: "Our Constitution entrusts Congress and the States—not the President—with the authority to regulate federal elections. And no statutory delegation of authority to the Executive Branch permits the President to short-circuit Congress’s deliberative process by executive order."

Trump's unconstitutional power grab over states' authority to manage elections will almost certainly be blocked by the courts, but in the unlikely event it isn't, “It will create chaos in the states, and it seems almost designed to create chaos.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

This is entirely normal, and a best practice. Under fed'l law, inactive registrations can be canceled if there's no activity for the next fed'l gen'l elections. And "ERIC identified 255,000 of those registrations [to cancel] for Georgia election officials." www.ajc.com/politics/swe...

In reality, our complex elections are more verifiable and secure than ever, thanks to the hundreds of thousands of public servants, of both parties, that run them. Rather than listen to this nonsense, go thank an election official for facilitating our voices in our democracy.

While Trump seeks to end birthright citizenship, besides the question of whether it's legal (it's not), another key question to ask is how can any US-born citizen proven citizenship if a US birth certificate isn't enough? /1 www.cbsnews.com/news/birthri...

One of the most comprehensive stories outlining the dismantling of the fed'l gov't's election cybersecurity initiatives and defenses at DHS and FBI, from @nicolesganga.bsky.social www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-a...

"Foreign adversaries, particularly China, Russia and Iran, continually attempt to influence our elections," said Becker, who added that the Trump administration has "unilaterally disarmed" in that international struggle. "I'm sure leaders in Moscow and Tehran and Beijing are celebrating."

🧵 Two individuals, both former officials who were being considered for positions within the intelligence community, were asked to give “yes” or “no” responses to the questions: Was Jan. 6 “an inside job?” And was the 2020 presidential election “stolen?” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Why the election certification matters www.cbsnews.com/video/why-th... via @CBSNews

On this day 4 years ago, an angry and armed mob, incited by the losing presidential candidate, attacked the Capitol of the United States, threatening to kill the VP and members of Congress, and overturn the results of a clear and verified election. History cannot be rewritten about this fact. /1

"We know who won the elections, thanks to paper ballots, audits, and more litigation than any election in world history. In dozens of court cases, losing candidates couldn't produce a single piece of evidence that raised any question about the election outcome." www.cbsnews.com/news/electio...

An important thread from CEIR Executive Director @beckerdavidj.bsky.social on claims of "missing ballots."

Over 1000 days after the 2020 presidential election, nobody has produced any evidence to any court or law enforcement agency proving election fraud allegations. There are a few reports about the security and integrity of that are worth checking out. youtu.be/LP2A7wJd2IQ @beckerdavidj.bsky.social

"This is a very complicated case with 19 defendants. It may take over a year. It may even go beyond the 2024 election, but this is an important step towards accountability and justice." - CEIR Executive Director @beckerdavidj.bsky.social Watch: https://youtu.be/JAny_PMOGhE
