What are Condos' biggest lessons from the election security work that's been done since 2016? "Listen to the experts" and "keep your eyes looking forward." "It's an ongoing battle. This will change over time and we have to be able to change with it." — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

Condos thinks @EACgov has "a significant role" to play, and he's defended it from colleagues' criticism. With its new funding, "I expect to see a lot more support coming to the states" from EAC. But he wants to change even split b/w D & R commissioners, which can impede action. — PolitiTweet.org

Asked if NASS (which Condos led during the 2018 midterms) should be more forceful about endorsing best practices (e.g. for voting machines) that some members reject, Condos said the group has to be diplomatic. "Sometimes politics gets in the way, and we have to pull it aside." — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

To those in Congress considering new election security regulations, Condos says they shouldn't be too prescriptive. Requirements (like regular pentesting) need to be flexible enough to evolve with changing threats. "My approach is, 'Give me the policy and let me figure it out.'" — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

Condos says Congress needs to provide states with ongoing election security funding. Spending grant funds can take years b/c of procurement rules. Some lawmakers have grumbled that states aren't spending fast enough. Regular funding would "allow us to plan better," Condos said. — PolitiTweet.org

"CISA gave us a focal point" for talking to the feds, Condos said. He praised the agency for setting up a threat dashboard, helping establishing an ISAC, offering services like pentesting, and improving communication by listening to what states needed. — PolitiTweet.org

.@VermontSOS Jim Condos is retiring at the end of this year after 12 years as SOS. He's been a major player in the federal-state election security partnership. I talked to him about CISA's value, federal regulation, how to fix the EAC, and more: https://t.co/3MVOUn6sdY — PolitiTweet.org
