This should have been the Democrats’ number one talking point in response to Republican claims of vote hacking in 2020. I have posted this on Twitter umpteen times since the election. My guess is that Democratic leadership overrode Wyden. 1/

Instead, Democratic leadership ran with the misleading “most secure election ever” talking point. The talking point misled bc it failed to mention that the bar was exceedingly low. I provide more detail on this issue in this Medium piece. 2/ jennycohn1.medium.com/why-have-so-ma…

7/ The #SAFEAct was initially the #PAVEAct. I messaged both extensively. The GOP killed them. axios.com/gop-senator-el…
8/ I fully support the #FreedomToVoteAct, but it is more focused on gerrymandering, dark money, & voter suppression than election security. The good security news: it wld ban paperless voting machines & require that all voters have the option to mark their ballots by hand. BUT…
9/ … it would not require manual audits until 2024, which is too late imo. Even in 2024, it wld require that jurisdictions manually audit only one race.
10/ The #FreedomToVoteAct wld also allow wireless modems to remain installed in some precinct ballot scanners until 2030, which is inexcusable.
11/ The National Voting Rights Task Force has written to @amyklobuchar about the need to significantly improve the provision re: wireless modems. So far, they have received no response.
12/ The wireless modems are a concern bc they connect the precinct scanners & receiving end systems to the internet. They were installed in at least a few swing states beginning in 2015. nbcnews.com/politics/elect…
