This
morning, Vice President Mike Pence held an organizational call with
members of the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity.
The Vice President reiterated President Trump’s
charge to the commission with producing a set of recommendations to
increase the American people's confidence in the integrity of our
election systems.
"The
integrity of the vote is a foundation of our democracy; this bipartisan
commission will review ways to strengthen that integrity in order to
protect and preserve the principle of one person,
one vote,” the Vice President told commission members today.
The commission set July 19 as its first meeting, which will take place in Washington, D.C.
Vice
Chair of the Commission and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach told
members a letter will be sent today to the 50 states and District of
Columbia on behalf of the Commission requesting
publicly-available data from state voter rolls and feedback on how to
improve election integrity.
