In 2005, former President Jimmy Carter and former Secretary of State James A. Baker III co-chaired a bipartisan Commission on Federal Election Reform. Their report, Building Confidence in U.S. Elections, offered 87 practical recommendations to balance ease of voting with strong safeguards following the controversies of 2000 and 2004. Two decades later, California has ignored or directly opposed most of these bipartisan suggestions—especially the integrity measures. The result

Governor Gavin Newsom signs SB 73, flanked by legislative supporters. (Official Governor’s Office photo) In a move that critics are calling a blatant power grab, California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed Senate Bill 73 into law just days before the June 2 statewide primary. The legislation, rushed through with an urgency clause for immediate effect, restricts law enforcement access to ballots, voter rolls, and voting systems — effectively centralizing oversight under Democr

NC State Board of Elections adopts voter purge rules that threaten to disenfranchise thousands of voters - Democracy NC- Credit: democracync.org In a significant victory for election integrity, a North Carolina Superior Court judge has ruled that the state’s Democrat-influenced Board of Elections violated the North Carolina Constitution by allowing “never residents” — U.S. citizens born overseas who have never lived in the state — to register and vote in federal elections.

In a revealing moment during Thursday’s budget press conference, Governor Gavin Newsom admitted Democrats have a contingency plan — what he called a “break the glass scenario” — to prevent two Republicans from advancing in California’s June 2 top-two primary for governor. When asked about accountability for his refusal to endorse any Democrat amid growing concerns that a fragmented Democratic field could allow Republicans Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco to take the top two spots

Shasta County’s election integrity battles keep delivering wins for We the People. After another round of lawfare aimed at blocking Measure B, private citizens stepped up, defended the qualified ballot measure in court, and won decisively.

What Is the California Statewide Voter ID Initiative? The initiative proposes simple changes to California’s voting process. It would require voters to show valid identification at the polls to enhance election security and reduce the risk of voter fraud.

As the 2026 midterm elections approach, the debate over election integrity remains front and center in American politics. Voter identification requirements and access to mail-in ballots vary dramatically from state to state, reflecting a federal system in which election rules are largely set at the local level rather than in Washington. A comprehensive review of current laws reveals that 36 out of 50 states already require or request some form of identification at the polls.

A former Lodi City Council member who narrowly won election in 2020 by allegedly orchestrating a voter fraud scheme that involved registering dozens of fake voters and stashing completed mail-in ballots at his home was sentenced this month to three years in county jail.

When it comes to voting, the rules and requirements can sometimes feel like a maze. There are three key proposals dominating the news for Shasta County, California and the Nation that have sparked discussion and raised questions: Shasta County’s local Measure B on the June 2, 2026 ballot, the statewide constitutional amendment (the California Voter ID & Citizenship Verification Initiative) expected on the November 2026 ballot, and The Federal Save America Act

In a morning ex parte hea

An attorney named Jane Doe recently filed a felonious lawsuit trying to block due process of the lawful act by ten thousand citizens to put a measure on the ballot requiring voter ID. The Save Act on the federal level, and the Voter ID on the state level are similar measures in process. Polls show at least 80% of the US population know that thirty million undocumented illegal noncitizens have already diluted their vote. Illegals obtain felonious ID’s from the DMV and free per

Federal agents executed a search warrant at the Fulton County Election Hub and Operations Center in Georgia, seizing records related to the 2020 presidential election amid ongoing disputes over the results.

The U.S. Supreme Court's January 14, 2026, ruling in Bost v. Illinois State Board of Elections (No. 24-568) is a 7-2 decision affirming that political candidates have Article III standing to challenge state election laws on vote counting in federal races.

In the wake of the 2020 and 2024 U.S. presidential elections, allegations of voter fraud and systemic vulnerabilities have continued to swirl, particularly amplified in late 2025 amid new investigations and resurfaced testimonies. Meanwhile, various audits, court rulings, and official reports continue to affirm the security of these elections.

Today the Shasta County Board of Supervisors performed their ministerial duty to add our election reform initiative to the ballot. Unlike the highly unpopular city tax measure that got placed on the ballot immediately for a special election, our initiative will be voted on by the people during the regularly scheduled June 2, 2026 primary election.

Brady Press Briefing Room.

President Donald Trump reposted a 51-second video clip on Truth Social that has reignited fierce debate over California’s election integrity.
