Elections must be conducted with honesty, impartiality, and in accordance with the rule of law. All eligible voters should have equal and unobstructed access to the voting process.
A healthy democracy depends on campaigns that are free from violence, threats, or intimidation. Voters must be able to participate safely and peacefully throughout the entire election period.
Every eligible vote must be counted and every effort to secure the process must also preserve access. Election systems must be protected from interference while remaining inclusive and transparent.
Transparent elections require responsible oversight. All participants – poll watchers, administrators, and observers – must understand and respect their roles, duties, and boundaries.
Trust in outcomes depends on legal resolution of disputes and a peaceful transfer of power. Once results are certified and all lawful challenges resolved, their legitimacy must be upheld.
By signing the Principles Pledges, you're joining thousands of Americans working to protect the freedoms and democratic values we all share.
Trust starts with action, and it starts with you.
