In a report, experts urged lawmakers, technology companies and the media to make changes to “increase the fairness and help bolster the legitimacy of the 2024 elections.”

Specific recommendations include instituting laws to protect election officials, ensuring “ample and robust” voting opportunities for eligible voters and instituting policies at social media companies to police election misinformation. The report breaks down the 24 recommendations into four broad categories: legal; media and social media; politics and norms; and tech. A central focus of many of the recommendations is addressing uncertainty in the process, with the committee urging courts, lawmakers and election officials to establish clear rules in advance and to resolve election disputes as early as possible.

The consequences of not doing so, the report adds, could be dire: “There would be a substantial likelihood of public unrest if Congress were to determine that the winning presidential candidate were constitutionally disqualified from serving and refuse to count electoral votes for that person.” After the election, some conservatives charged that the private grants were improper, even though many election officials said they filled critical gaps during a pandemic.
