States are days away from handing voter roll data to USPS, with no clarity on what happens to it next. Verified Voting President & CEO Pamela Smith told @ms.now's Vaughn Hillyard why that uncertainty lands hardest on election officials.

Ever wonder how election officials keep ballots and election equipment secure? Every container is sealed, and it can't be opened without leaving a mark. Each time materials change hands, they check that seal and sign off on it. It's one of many ways your vote is protected.

61 years ago today, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was signed into law. Since then, court rulings have stripped away much of its protection. Every eligible voter deserves equal access to the ballot box—and confidence that their vote is counted accurately and verifiably. #VRA

1 in 6 voters have a disability. Yet, voters with disabilities are often met with a range of disproportionately burdensome barriers to voting. As federal protections weaken, states can pass their own Voting Rights Acts to safeguard the freedom to vote. 🧵1/5
