Election Integrity
We must insist our elections are free from fraud, cyber-hacking, soft-ware manipulation,100% safe and secure. No voting by non-U.S. Citizens.
Jo Rae has been working with various Election Integrity groups to ensure your vote is counted as you intended.

On election integrity, your statement is barely even a good start; it’s weak. In addition to the things you listed you need to add:
1- all ballots must be received by election day and counted on election night
2- no electronic voting of any kind shall be allowed in Oregon
3- every ballot drop box shall have redundant security cameras recording 24/7, and/or shall be monitored by poll watchers (one from each party) from the moment it is ready to accept ballots – both parties shall verify that the box is empty prior to accepting any ballots.
4- every ballot envelope shall have the signature verified by poll watchers of both major parties (at a minimum), plus have an Oregon ID number (driver license or state ID number) written on the envelope.
5- ballots shall be counted by an optical reader that counts the darkened ovals on the paper ballot. The ballots shall be recounted on election night in each precinct BEFORE reporting the total to the state or federal government. They shall be recounted until 2 counts come out exactly the same. Only then may the totals be divulged.
6- ballot harvesting shall not be allowed
7- the ballot counting machines shall be tested for accuracy on election night. Each major party shall provide a stack of, say, 10,000 marked “test” ballots for which each party knows the count. They shall be run thru the machine to verify the machine is counting correctly.
8- the counting machines shall not be connected to the internet
9- ballots shall be watched 24/7 by poll watchers from all major parties simultaneously. Backup watchers shall be used if the main watcher needs a break.
10- motor voter registration shall be stopped. All motor-voter voting registrations shall be purged and those voters will show up at the election office to register
11- voter registration shall only be allowed at the election office, online registration shall not be allowed.
12- no voter shall register to vote who has not reached the age of 18 (this should be raised to age 26 due to immaturity issues)
13- voter registration information shall be private and shall not be a public record
14- political candidates shall not be able to buy lists of voters – voter records are off-limits
15- any person who entered the USA illegally shall never be allowed a pathway to citizenship and voting – no exceptions
16- persons born inside the USA to non-citizens shall not be US citizens, if they are born to someone who entered illegally they shall never get the right to vote in any election
17- purging of voter rolls shall occur every year, prior to the primary election, and again prior to the general election.
18- mail-in ballots shall only be given to those who can show that they can’t vote in person. This may require a state holiday, possibly even 2 days, to allow people to vote.
19- voters shall show up at the election precinct, get a ballot and mark it with a dark pen using the fill-in-the-oval method
20- vote counting shall continue with no breaks on election night until every ballot is counted.
21- ballots that mysteriously appear, and/or which were not properly supervised, shall be discarded.
Those are just off the top of my head. You’ve got a lot of work to do.
Good luck.
