Yes this is the real story! It’s a huge deal that the once & future most powerful man in the world — who tried everything he could to avoid this result — was convicted of election-related felonies by a jury of regular citizens and sentenced. A good sign for the rule of law.
Truly a game-changer. Threats still exist — probably always will — but it can’t be said enough how much more secure presidential elections are because of The Electoral Count Reform Act.
This article on how Trump will try to steal the election if he loses is chilling.
But...you'll notice the article repeatedly notes that a little noticed bill I helped write - The Electoral Count Reform Act - makes a steal a whole lot harder than in 2021.

During our latest #CampaignLegalConversation, @AdavNoti explained how the Electoral Count Reform Act (ECRA) addressed many of the vulnerabilities in the process of casting & counting electoral votes revealed in the 2020 election. Watch the full event 👇

Voters choose their leaders, not the other way around. Certifying elections isn't optional. The guides we have created with @brennancenter @CampaignLegal @protctdemocracy will help election officials understand their legal options when certification is challenged
Certifying elections is the mandatory democratic duty of election officials – they don’t get to override the will of the people by refusing to do so. Our new guides outline the legal options officials have when others refuse to certify. allvotingislocal.org/state-c…
ALT Respect voters. Certify elections.
It was wonderful chatting with @AWeissmann_ and Mary McCord about the security of election certification in 2024. There’s been lots of progress on this since 2020. Don’t worry about the nonsense in Georgia — the system is in good shape!
A new episode of the Prosecuting Donald Trump podcast, covering bullets and ballots- 2024 election interference issues, with a wonderful special guest who kept Mary and my blood pressure down and will I think do the same for you!

We unequivocally condemn the attack at former President Trump’s rally. There is no place for violence in American politics.

Campaign Legal Center condemns today’s shocking act of violence against former President Trump. Our democracy depends on every American rejecting all forms of political violence. Tragic events like today’s shooting in Pennsylvania should never happen – not now, not ever.

A major new campaign finance decision from the DC Circuit dropped today, ordering the Federal Election Commission to do more to enforce rules requiring super PACs to operate independently of candidates. (This is a big win for the folks at @CampaignLegal). Here’s a quick primer:

FEC commissioner @SeanJCooksey: "The deregulators are winning.”
Sen. @SenWhitehouse: "Who would have thought deadlock and dysfunction would be the good old days?”

NEW: After years of deadlock, the FEC is suddenly agreeing to roll back rules on how politicians, parties and super PAC raise and spend $$$.

The @FEC was deadlocked for 15 years. It’s not deadlocked anymore — it’s much worse.

This and the whole thread it's in are 100% wrong. Any contribution over $1000 in the last 20 days before an election must be publicly reported within 48 hours.
I realize @CommishSmith is playing fast and loose by using the term "campaign expenditure," but he knows that what's at issue in the case is a contribution.

PACs, super PACs and secret money groups, oh my! What's the difference, and how are they used to hide the true sources of election spending from voters? We turned to CLC's Executive Director @AdavNoti for a quick, watered-down explanation in our latest #CLCExplains video.
