🧵4/4 🚫 MYTH: An audit is the same thing as a recount. ✅ FACT: Audits routinely check that voting systems counted ballots correctly. Recounts re-tally votes, usually when a race is close. Learn more: verifiedvoting.org/audits/auditfa…

🧵3/4 🚫 MYTH: The U.S. needs to bring paper ballots back. ✅ FACT: Most of the country already votes using some form of paper ballots—and that’s a good thing! Paper creates a verifiable record that can be reliably audited and recounted. Learn more: verifiedvoting.org/paperrecords/

🧵 1/4 On #NationalHonestyDay, we’re telling the truth about how elections work. Here are 3 persistent election myths and the facts that debunk them:

Verified Voting’s Pam Smith on @LincolnSquareHQ: "We may not be able to control the chaos that's coming down at us, but election officials are generally ready for anything...what voters need to do is have their own plans.” Learn more & listen now: bit.ly/4ueFVaE

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has completed its decades-long project to destroy the Voting Rights Act. It has blessed racial discrimination and further encouraged partisan gerrymandering in the Callais ruling. 1/2

Today's SCOTUS ruling on Louisiana v. Callais strips Black voters of fair representation and makes it harder for them to shape decisions about the issues that matter the most. Despite this setback, we will continue our mission to build a democracy that invites everyone in.

The Constitution is clear: The president has no role in our elections. Any attempt by the president to control who can vote and how elections are run is unconstitutional. More from @thetrevorpotter in @chkbal. chkbal.substack.com/p/there-is-no-…

On #InternationalCreativityAndInnovationDay, we're shouting out Risk-Limiting Audits (RLAs)! They help election officials check reported election outcomes against ballots and trigger a recount if needed. That's innovation democracy counts on. Learn more: bit.ly/48MCPSZ

The SAVE Act might not make it through Congress, but it’s already done what it set out to do — hand state legislators a blueprint for making it harder for eligible voters to vote. Election officials must push back against these attempts at every turn. votebeat.org/national/2026/…

The SAVE Act's in-person proof requirement costs Alaska Native voters a plane ticket and days of work. Most Tribal IDs won't qualify, and for Elders without birth records, it could mean losing the right to vote entirely: nativenewsonline.net/currents/alask…

For many Arab American voters, limited access to Arabic-language election materials remains a key barrier to full democratic participation.  1/

26 claims, zero credible evidence: Our NEW REPORT shows the core mistakes and misinterpretations behind the Trump Admin's recent raid on a Georgia election office. Take a look: statesunited.org/fulton-county-…

Our C.Jay Coles, in coalition with @BrennanCenter, @CalVoterFdn, @FSFP, & @Public_Citizen, testified against California SB 970 last week, which would mandate electronic ballot return for military or overseas voters—an approach rated highest risk for security, safety, and privacy.
