The citizen's election observation and oversight powers are absolute and a longstanding American tradition. United States citizens are steadfast in our affirmation that to witness and scrutinize every action and detail is to confirm and trust. In this tradition, every American citizen knows that secrecy and opaque election activities, procedures, processes, and measures will never be trustworthy. Trust is never automatic and in the case of our voting system, trust is certainly not optional. To this end, 100% election transparency requires the modification or elimination of any election policy, procedure, or measure that does not or cannot adhere to the citizen’s election observation and oversight powers. In our continued research and advocacy for the advancement of the science of voting security and election integrity we have uncovered the following policies, procedures, and measures to aid in the citizen's ability to trust the election results of our future elections:

Citizen election observation and oversight capabilities start with detailed tracking and automatic publishing of all election-related records. All records and data must be published for public consumption in a timely and urgent manner. Time is of the essence and always urgent as it relates to the citizens’ voting system observation and oversight powers. Pre-election records must be detailed, comprehensive, and readily available to all citizens and published every time changes and updates are introduced. No time-based privileged access to election records shall be granted to any party. Everyone gains access to published records at the same time without exception. Post-election records must be published at least 60 days before election certification is ratified. Ample time prior to election result certification must be provided for citizens to review and confirm the proposed election results for themselves and raise objections.

Published records shall include at a minimum the following: the State Voter Registration List (VRL) with real-time updates prior to election day and the final list as of election day, the number of eligible voters per precinct and their registered party affiliation, the number of active voters and inactive voters on the VRL, the reason inactive registered voters are inactive, the number of ballots created for each district and the number of ballots cast in the district, the date each ballot was created and who observed its creation, the full chain of custody for the ballot with processors and observers signatures, the date every ballot was cast and who observed it, how every ballot was cast, (in person, absentee, other methods with detailed name/description of the method), the (UBID) Unique Ballot ID of every ballot cast, the total number of ballots cast, the list of UBID for all ballots that required objection handling, the reason for the objection and the resolution (how it was counted in the tallies), the number of ballots that were not counted due to objections and who observed the objection, individuals who voted with name, address, party affiliation, method of casting the ballot and the location they voted in), official election workers schedules and dates and times of all election activity they engaged in, along with corresponding observers. Any other relevant information that will allow every person who voted to validate the integrity of the election on their own. All public records available for citizens to validate the legality of entries to the State Voter Registration list are published for public consumption without public record requests. Changes to the (VRL) Voter Registration List are published immediately for public consumption. All relevant public records required for citizens to confirm the accuracy of the (VRL) Voter Registration List are published for citizen consumption without exception. If State law allows third-party processing of the voter authorization registration list, (VRL) Voter Registration List, then state law requires full transparency for public consumption of all of the third parties, processes, software code, and algorithms. Full access for all citizens to observe all election activity in person where possible and via real-time live video feeds everywhere election activity is carried out. Video recordings of all election activities must be published immediately.

Public publishing in real-time and preserved copies published for all video footage of any location possessing and handling ballots. Ballots must always be in full sight of the video feed; Obstruction of this requirement is punishable by imprisonment and harsh fines.

Public publishing of minute notes from Election Officer planning meetings and communications related to the execution of election management office responsibilities. The Election Management Office is an extension of the people and all communication is publicly observable.

Election records and materials must be available to citizens in real-time, as much as possible, and preserved for immediate ongoing access as quickly as possible. State and local governing bodies must pass laws to provide this critical service and to constantly encourage and improve the quality and quantity of this service's capabilities.

All election records are to be preserved for 50 years (Paper records, digital records, video surveillance, everything). Federal law requires states to preserve records for 22 months; however, this is not sufficient time to identify and research activity that spans multiple election cycles.

No action shall be required of any citizen for election-related material and records to be published for the citizen's time-sensitive consumption.
