Investigations into the 2024 Election concluded that results were manipulated through intrusions in the “data layer” of the election infrastructure.
What does this mean?
Results were changed after they were counted. Not at the precinct, not in the county’s central counting office, not by the state ….
Results were changed by a person or party external to the infrastructure, with the manipulation happening right under our noses …. but out of the visions of all oversight.
So, how do we defend against this kind of manipulation? While we do not have the access or authority to protect the election data layer that holds all of our votes on Election Night, we do have the resources, understanding, and ability to monitor, measure and mark this manipulation in future elections.
Our goal is to build a program that will act as a “watchdog” against the specific method of manipulation that evidence indicates was used intentionally 2024, 2025, and 2026 election in the US.
