ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Al Schmidt, Pennsylvania’s top state election official, outlined Thursday how administrators in the nation’s biggest battleground state are preparing to take on election misinformation and even potential violence before and after ballots are cast this year.
In 2020, “there were threats of violence and intimidation targeting many of our election workers, not just in Pennsylvania, but in other places, and not just in big cities, it was rural counties as well,” Schmidt said. But while he was pleased with progress on that front, Schmidt expressed dismay that Pennsylvania is the only battleground state that he said hasn’t made significant updates to its election laws since the 2020 race, attributing the lack of change to the divided state Legislature.
