EXPOSED: Mass EXODUS of Election Officials Since 2020 Raises Questions About What They're REALLY Running From

A bombshell new study has revealed that half of all chief local election officials across 11 Western states have abandoned their posts since November 2020, raising serious questions about what these bureaucrats are really running from.

According to research from Issue One, the mass exodus has only accelerated since 2023, creating what researchers call an "ongoing turnover risk" for America's election infrastructure. But here's what the mainstream media won't tell you: this massive departure coincides perfectly with increased scrutiny of election processes following the controversial 2020 election.

While establishment voices continue pushing the narrative that 2020 was flawless, social media tells a different story. One tweet desperately insisted that "The 2020 election was not stolen" and called it "the most secure in American history," citing federal and state officials who allegedly "found no evidence of voting systems losing or changing votes." Yet if everything was so perfect, why are election officials fleeing in droves?

"In the years since the 2020 election, roughly 50 percent of top local election officials across 11 western states have left their jobs since November 2020, according to a new report from Issue One..."

This isn't just about normal job turnover, patriots. When half the people responsible for running elections suddenly decide they don't want to do it anymore, that should raise red flags for every American who cares about election integrity.

The timing is particularly suspicious. As President Trump's second administration continues pushing for election reforms and transparency, these officials are heading for the exits faster than rats abandoning a sinking ship. Are they concerned about increased oversight? Worried about accountability measures?

Meanwhile, election watchdogs note that officials are "drawing on sobering 2020 lessons" as new reforms are implemented nationwide. States like Georgia are even considering scrapping touchscreen voting systems, while Minnesota Republicans are demanding voter data transparency.

The question every American should be asking is simple: if these election officials have nothing to hide, why are they running? What don't they want the American people to discover about how our elections have been conducted?

Does anyone know if there's a database tracking all these resignations? We need to compile this information and make it public.

DRAIN THE SWAMP! These corrupt officials are jumping ship before they get exposed.

Finally someone is reporting on this! The mainstream media won't touch it because it doesn't fit their narrative.

MSM is complicit in the cover-up at this point.

Our county clerk retired suddenly in January 2021 after 15 years. Said she wanted to 'spend time with family' but everyone knows that's code for something else.

What's really concerning is how many of these officials are being replaced by activists. We need to pay attention to who's taking their place and what their backgrounds are.

Great point. The replacements are just as important to monitor as the departures.

This is exactly what we've been saying! You don't run unless you have something to hide. These officials know what really happened and they're getting out before the truth comes to light.

Couldn't agree more. The timing is way too suspicious to be a coincidence.

I've been tracking this in my county too - we've had 3 election supervisors leave since 2020. Something stinks.
