An Open Letter

To: Sen. Schmitt, Rep. Graves, Sen. Hawley

From: A constituent in Plattsburg, MO

March 3

Election interference appears to be this administration’s goal and we, the citizens, can see it. The president has said, "Iran tried to interfere in the 2020 and 2024 elections to stop Trump and now faces renewed war with the United States." This is ridiculous and appears to be a feeble attempt to use our military as a reason to distract and then interfere in elections. False claims that foreign government interference caused him to lose in 2020 have been used in numerous statements and NONE have been proven. Since taking office last year, another consistent theme has been your administration's pursuit for data on American citizens — in particular, those who might vote in 2026. DOJ has never made clear what legitimate use they have for collecting sensitive voter data — including partisan vote history — on every American who has ever registered or voted. This is absurd and dangerous. As the news cycle spins from all of the created calamities — from Epstein to a partial government shutdown to tariffs to tearing down the East Wing to war in the Middle East etc etc — the president’s election subversion efforts continue leading up to November. The president is clearly working to undermine free and fair elections this fall. Data collection is a major part of it. Spreading election lies is another. Making voting harder for those who oppose him is critical, as is positioning himself to seize ballots and take over vote-counting if he deems it necessary. What are YOU going to do to ensure MO has free and fair elections will occur without federal interference? And what are YOU doing in Congress to ensure elections are not interfered with by this administration ALL over the country?
