If you love to aggressively lobby for, refine and implement those solutions, and engage grassroots activists in tackling these issues strategically - please apply post haste. The Trump administration fired the nation's election cybersecurity staff, is withholding election security funding from states, and is threatening to prosecute election officials and seize voting machines.
