The RNC and Trump campaign announced they would launch a massive election integrity program in early 2024, describing it as “the most extensive and monumental election integrity program in the history of the United States.”
This multifaceted program includes five areas:
Mechanical testing of logic and precision
Early voting
Voting on Election Day
Postal Ballot Processing: Ruling and Replication
Post-election: Campaigning, audits and recounts
Every battleground state has an election integrity hotline, which is accompanied by polling, and that’s a big part of the program. In addition to that, there are “comprehensive training sessions” on election monitoring every month. In fact, in late July, the Republican Party held a national election integrity training event to mark 100 days until the election.
At the time, Breitbart News reported:
According to a press release provided exclusively to Breitbart News by the Republican National Committee, online and in-person trainings will be held by the Trump campaign in 17 states and will be led by several “top-level surrogates” who will provide remarks “to energize grassroots volunteers.”
The drill came as the Republican National Committee celebrated July 28th marking 100 days until former President Donald Trump and other Republican candidates win “all districts.”
“The Republican National Committee is pleased to announce that today is Election Integrity Training Day,” Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley said in a statement. “We are proud to join the NRCC and NRSC in conducting the first-ever national election integrity campaign designed to protect the ballot.”
In June, Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump issued a warning against anyone planning to steal from the upcoming election.
“We’re also sending a clear message to anyone considering cheating in our elections: If you do, we will find you, we will pursue you and we will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law,” she said. said.
