Lawmakers who shirk their duty to protect our elections under Article 4 Sec. 4 of the U.S. Constitution--stating that Congress shall "protect ... [the states] against invasion"-- shld be deemed co-conspirators in any further election meddling. #PAVEAct #HandMarkedPaperBallots 1/ 
I hear that some Dems are instead pushing for @amyklobuchar’s Secure Elections Act. But as I read it, the SEA would allow states to use taxpayer $$$ to buy touchscreen barcode ballot markers for all & to force all voters to use them! 2/ medium.com/@jennycohn1/st…
3/ Indeed, unlike Sen. Wyden’s #PaveAct, the SEA does NOT require that states give voters the option to mark their ballots by hand. This should be a NON STARTER.
4/ The SEA does not even require Risk Limiting Audits! Hand marked ballots and Risk Limiting Audits are not “details” that we can revisit later. They are what distinguishes a secure election from an insecure election!
5/ In it’s current form, the SEA would do nothing but let lawmakers PRETEND they have secured our elections. By contrast, the #PaveAct would actually secure them w/ #HandMarkedPaperBallots & Risk Limiting Audits!
