## Talk of election security is good, but we still need more money to solve the problem
Last week, six Secretaries of State testified to U.S. Congress about the current state of election security ahead of November’s Presidential election.

As with many things in politics and life, though, there is still an issue of money.
Talk of the importance of election security
