Excerpt:
The Trump administration has launched a concerted drive to undermine American elections. These moves are unprecedented and in some cases illegal. They began with the pardon of the January 6 defendants who sought to overturn the 2020 results. They include affirmative attacks on democratic institutions, the repeal and withdrawal of voter protections, and symbolic or demonstrative moves. A clear pattern suggests a growing effort. As the 2026 midterms approach, that effort will likely gather momentum.
This resource offers the first chronicle of the Trump administration’s actions this year to undermine election integrity. They include:
- attempting to rewrite election rules to burden voters and usurp control of election systems;
- targeting or threatening to target election officials and others who keep elections free and fair;
- supporting people who undermine election administration; and
- retreating from the federal government’s role of protecting voters and the election process.
