"... the integrity of our election outcomes on a national level dances on the head of a pin."
Jeh Johnson:
As everyone knows, in this country we elect our national leadership through the Electoral College. As long as that's the case, as long as that's the Constitutional requirement and, given our politics, national elections will be decided in key precincts in key states. In other words, the integrity of our election outcomes on a national level dances on the head of a pin.

Election Security Task Force Forum The Task Force on Election Security, composed of Democratic House members, held its first public forum on Capitol Hill. Members heard from former Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson and former Homeland Security Under Secretary for the National Protection and Programs Directorate Suzanne Spaulding. The witnesses recalled their observations and experiences from the 2016 election cycle, as well as their efforts to respond to and address Russian interference in that process. They also made recommendations for what Congress should do to work with the states to shore up and prevent election system vulnerabilities and ensure security for the 2018 and 2020 election cycles.
