Last week, we were the first to report on alarming, anti-voting comments made by a Republican member of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission.

At an event hosted by a Trump-aligned think tank, Christy McCormick falsely claimed that Democrats oppose stricter voting laws because they “need the votes” of “illegal citizens.”

That’s a conspiracy theory that’s common on the far right. But McCormick isn’t some online MAGA warrior — she’s a federal official responsible for helping states fairly administer elections.

If this is concerning to you, you're not alone. Within hours of publishing this exclusive story, Oregon’s secretary of state cited our reporting and called for McCormick to resign or be removed.
