Taking Back our Freedom: Elections Not Selections
Welcome to South Carolina Safe Elections. We are a dedicated team of nonpartisan grassroots volunteers advocating for secure, verifiable, accessible, and, most importantly, transparent elections.
We want to ensure that all South Carolina citizens have confidence in their elections. Our elections must be for the people, by the people. Our team has worked hard since 2020 to study state and federal election laws and voting equipment, processes, and procedures. We canvassed eight pivotal counties for the 2020 election and conducted poll observation across our state in 2022. Our cyber experts reviewed and categorized vulnerabilities of the ES&S electronic voting systems.
Most importantly, we have conducted studies, reviews, and tests to develop a “Gold Standard” for re-engineering the election process from registration to reporting.
Here is what we stand for:
- One day of elections at the precinct with voter ID
- Registrations at least every 4 years in person with valid ID and proof of citizenship
- Paper poll books
- No electronics involved in the process
- Voters hand-mark paper ballots, which are then hand-counted
- Ballots are counted where cast–at the precinct
- The counting of the ballots is taped, fully observed by the public
- Audits are easily and efficiently conducted via recounts and reviews of the recordings
