election integrity
Fair ballot processes
Election integrity refers to the fairness, accuracy, and security of elections—ensuring votes are properly cast, counted, and reported.
The phrase appears across the political spectrum but with different emphases: some stress preventing fraud and verifying voter identity, others focus on ensuring access and protecting against suppression.
Election integrity laws, election integrity concerns.
The term has become contentious, with critics arguing it sometimes masks voter restriction efforts.
