Dear President Biden and Vice President Harris,
I hope this letter finds you well. As the cybersecurity lead on your 2020 campaign, I was proud to contribute to ensuring a secure election process. Today, however, I write to you with grave concerns about the integrity of the 2024 presidential election and the urgent need for a forensic audit to restore trust in our democracy.
Recent reports detail alarming irregularities, including bomb threats traced to foreign sources, breaches of voting system software, voter roll purges, and a surge in rejected mail-in ballots. Together, these issues undermine confidence in the election results. Security experts and election officials have expressed concerns about the vulnerabilities these events expose, with some calling for recounts of paper ballots in key states.
Given these unprecedented challenges, I urge you to consider a comprehensive forensic audit. Such an effort would not only verify the accuracy of the vote count but also identify vulnerabilities that could threaten future elections. Nations like Germany and Brazil have set examples by conducting forensic reviews to protect electoral integrity. The United States should demonstrate the same commitment to transparency and fairness.
As someone who has worked to safeguard our democracy, I believe that a forensic audit is necessary to ensure that every vote is accurately counted and public trust is restored. I respectfully ask for your leadership in initiating this vital process.
Thank you for your attention to this critical issue. I would be happy to provide further details or support as needed.
Sincerely,
Jacqueline Singh
Author Note: I was honored to serve as the Lead Incident Response and Threat Analyst for the campaign to elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris alongside a team of awesome folks under the leadership of our CISO, Deputy CTO, CTO, and Campaign Manager.
During the 2020 election, anti-democratic forces attacked me personally with harmful lies, which I have since discovered have a foreign source.
Since that election, these types of hybrid warfare tactics have become much more potent and destructive, and our enemies have widened their usage and application–As an example, note the myriad bomb threats received by key polling places on Election Day 2024 which disrupted our democratic process.
Please consider using your right to speak to make your voice heard during this crucial time for our democracy.
