As we approach the upcoming election, it is a good time to discuss how we feel about our electoral process. There has been a lot of controversy and fears have been expressed about this issue over the past few years. Some fear that their vote may not be properly counted or that voter suppression tactics could be in play or that non-citizens may be allowed to vote. Others worry about potential foreign interference, whether through cyberattacks or disinformation campaigns aimed at sowing discord, swaying the vote or undermining trust in the results.
At this meeting, we will have an opportunity to discuss these concerns as well as how secure and transparent we feel the election system is, and what measures are in place to ensure every vote is accurately recorded and counted. By addressing these concerns openly, we can foster a stronger sense of trust in our electoral process. Some of the questions we will explore include:
- What concerns, if any, do you have regarding the voting process in the upcoming election?
- Do you feel confident that your vote will be accurately counted? Why or why not?
- Are there specific factors (like technology, misinformation, or fraud) that make you more or less trusting of the election process?
- Have your fears or concerns changed in recent years?
- What steps do you think could be taken to increase public confidence in elections?
- Have past elections influenced how much you trust the process this time around?
