Call your two US Senators to vote NO on flawed voting reform bill S.3212

From: VoteTrustUSA

VoteTrustUSA is urging citizens and the US Senate to oppose passage of S.3212, the Bipartisan Electronic Voting Reform Act.

The bill contains some generally commendable provisions relating to election security (Section 4), voting system testing and certification (Section 5), and ballot layout design (Section 10), but the positive aspects of these provisions are outweighed by the problems created by many of the other sections of this bill. Despite its worthy motivations, the bill fails to carry out its objective.

However well-intentioned, S.3212, if enacted as written, would damage the transparency and reliability of Federal elections in the U.S. for decades to come. Please call your two US Senators at 202-224-3121 (not toll-free) and tell them to vote NO on S.3212. Thank you
