A vast majority of voters want policies and procedures in place to guarantee the integrity of elections, according to new polling.
That includes 86% of those surveyed who agree that election officials should have access to all necessary information to verify that the number of ballots cast matches the number of voters, and 85% who say that election officials should verify the accuracy of the information they receive before signing off on certifying election results. Majorities of Republicans, Democrats and Independents support the proper verification of voting.
The polling of 1,000 registered voters nationwide comes from the nonprofit Follow the Law and Napolitan News Service and has a +/- 3.1% margin of error. Follow the Law, according to its website, is “a group of lawyers committed to ensuring elections are free, fair and represent the true votes of all American citizens.” Napolitan News Service is operated by pollster Scott Rasmussen.
“Our group at Follow the Law understands the critical need for voters to have confidence in the electoral process,” Melody Clarke, executive director at Follow the Law, said of the polling results. The “poll highlights that voters, regardless of political affiliation, gender, education, or income, see the accuracy and transparency of the election process as essential.”
When asked if local officials should verify that the total number of votes cast matches the total number of ballots issued and the number of votes certified, a process known as reconciliation, 84% of those surveyed said “yes,” 5% said “no,” and 11% were not sure. When asked if reconciliation even delays final certification of election results, 78% of respondents said it was still important. Fifteen percent said certifying the results quickly was more of a priority, and 8% were unsure. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
