According to a recent Daily Caller report, the RNC has staffed up considerably in preparation for the 2024 presidential election — thousands of lawyers and volunteers have been recruited to ensure election integrity, according to an RNC memo.
From The Daily Caller:
According to the memo from the RNC’s director of election integrity, Gineen Bresso, and senior advisor for election integrity, Josh Helton, the RNC has “devoted unprecedented resources” to making sure election integrity is in place across the country. The memo explains their achievements and what else they hope to accomplish before the elections. The memo also states that the RNC has hired over 115 paid staff to facilitate volunteer training at the state level.
As of Monday, there have been 219,712 total volunteers recruited, 2004 total trainings held, and 5,077 total attorneys recruited, according to the memo.
The memo also goes on to explain the field program, legal program and communications program in regards to election integrity.
“Our field program is designed to recruit and train poll watchers and recruit poll workers whom we then submit to relevant in-state credentialing authorities. We do this by holding continuous recruitment and training events both in-person and online. Combining these two populations, we are proud to share that we have recruited more than 200,000 volunteers in total nationwide,” the memo reads.
It then says that the field program is divided among 18 states, which are categorized as the following:
Presidential Battlegrounds: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin
Reach States: Minnesota, New Hampshire, Virginia
Additional Key Senate States: Florida, Montana, Ohio, Texas
Additional Key Congressional States: California, New York
CD States (States with congressional districts that have their own electoral votes): Maine, Nebraska

Meanwhile, lawmakers on the hill are also concerned about election integrity — especially amid a deluge of news stories involving non-citizens being purged from voter rolls.
“A letter from 73 lawmakers, led by Sen. Bill Hagerty, R-Tenn., and Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., sent to Attorney General Merrick Garland said they were “deeply concerned” by reports of noncitizens registering to vote and voting in federal elections and had not received a response from an inquiry in July on the matter,” Fox News reports.
“As of today, there has been no response from you or your Department regarding the inquiry on July 12, 2024, seeking information on efforts undertaken by your Department to enforce laws prohibiting non-citizen voting. Given that the 2024 Presidential Election is in less than 34 days, your Department’s inaction and refusal to provide any information regarding its efforts to promote public trust and confidence in our elections is especially alarming,” the lawmakers wrote.
