RNC creates year-round Election Integrity Department for 2024.

The RNC Launches New Department Dedicated to Election Integrity

The Republican National Committee (RNC) is taking election integrity seriously for the upcoming presidential race. The RNC has launched a new department dedicated solely to election integrity, which will bring on year-round staff operating new technology designed to facilitate recruitment and litigation. The RNC is preparing to hire an army of “tens of thousands” of attorneys and poll watchers with an aggressive litigation strategy to ensure a free and fair election next year.

Transforming Election Integrity Efforts

The GOP’s election integrity efforts will be transformed from pop-up operations into year-round initiatives that remain ongoing immediately after each election. Prior to 2021, the national Republican Party was restricted from engaging in electoral oversight, such as hiring poll watchers over a 1981 consent decree. That meant any initiatives designed to maintain integrity in American elections were patchwork efforts coordinated by independent campaigns with the support of the GOP congressional campaign committees. The decades-long order was lifted in 2018 after more than three decades, and the party officially resumed efforts on poll watching and voter fraud in the 2021-2022 election cycle.

Mastering the Mechanics of Modern Elections

The fallout from the 2020 election, wherein Democrats exploited lockdown-era protocols to radically expand unsupervised access to the ballot box, has led the GOP to prioritize election integrity as a pillar of the RNC’s 2024 campaign strategy. While Republicans are limited with what they can do to confront the corporate collusion, the new RNC department marks an effort to master the mechanics of modern elections. The GOP is also planning to jump in the ballot harvesting game in states with loose restrictions.

Expanding Efforts in 2024

The RNC ballot harvested where the law allowed it in 2022, helping to secure key congressional wins that flipped the House. The party will build on and expand those efforts in 2024 where legal while still holding Democrats accountable for bad laws that undermine election integrity.
