Despite all the fuss about "voter fraud" and "rigged election," the House Appropriations Committee entirely defunded the Elections Assistance Commission on June 30th. It is/was the only agency that safeguards our elections systems, yet it was quietly shut down without having checked a single voting machine for irregularities or for malware left behind (not even in the 21--or 39?--states where tampering has been identified). There is no other US agency that does such investigations.
Why is this important?
The demise of the Election Assistance Commission has gone under-reported on news networks (save MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show), yet its functioning is imperative for honest, reliable elections all over the US. Please sign to show that the American public will not accept this obliteration of truth.
