American elections are less secure today than they were four years ago, thanks to foreign threats, the rise of artificial intelligence and Americans’ flagging confidence in institutions, according to Sen. Mark Warner.
“In many ways, we are potentially less protected as we go into 2024, in terms of the security of our elections, than we were in 2020,” the Virginia Democrat said Tuesday at a Senate Rules and Administration Committee hearing on the administration of elections.
The Rules Committee was the second Senate panel to tackle election challenges on Tuesday. Earlier in the day, the Judiciary Committee held a hearing on protecting voting rights.
