Hey there! I'm Bill Theobald from The Fulcrum. I've been covering what's happening to secure the 2020 election from interference. Hundreds of millions of dollars have been designated to keep U.S. elections safe. States are spending it in all kinds of ways that they say will keep your voting information, from registration to the ballot, safe. I'm here to answer anything you want to know about election security and what changes officials have (or haven't) made since 2016.

UPDATE: Heading out now. Thanks for all the great questions, sorry I didn't get to them all. Feel free to reach out to me any time at williamtheobald@thefulcrum.us.

Updates to the r/Politics Rules

Posted: 07 Jan 2020 10:27 AM PST

Articles must be published within the last two weeks (decreased from one month)

Old content is often misleading because the political landscape changes rapidly. We therefore require all submissions in /r/politics to be published within the last two weeks. For example, if the date is January 29 and the article submitted was written before January 15, then the submission is out of date.

No Copy-Pasted Articles Rule

Submissions which are entirely a copy-paste of the original reporting, or that add one paragraph or less with a "read more at" link to the original content, are not permitted. Articles or videos that add another take on a subject, or include different verbiage or context, are otherwise allowed.

The full r/politics rules can be viewed here.
