Here are Seth Keshel’s Ten Points to True Election Integrity, originally published on his Substack in March 2022:

I. Clean Out the Voter Rolls

II. Ban All Electronic Elections Equipment Remove all voting machines, replacing the entire industry with a non-electronic alternative.

III. Voter ID with Paper Ballots Only

IV. Ban Mail-In Voting

V. Ban Early Voting

VI. Drastically Smaller Precincts

VII. Ban Ballot Harvesting

VIII. Election Day is a Holiday

IX. New Reporting Requirements for Transparency

X. Heavy Prison Sentences for All Who Commit Fraud Defend Our Union

Keshel frames these as a complete platform rather than a menu of options — his argument being that each point individually deters fraud, but implementing all ten together would produce elections with very limited opportunities for systemic manipulation.

A few things worth noting for context: Keshel is a former Army Captain of Military Intelligence and became prominent in election integrity circles following the 2020 election. His claims about that election — including his estimate of over 8 million fraudulent Biden votes — have not been substantiated by audits, courts, or election officials across both parties, and dozens of legal challenges were dismissed. That said, several of his ten reform proposals (voter ID, paper ballots, voter roll maintenance) have broad bipartisan support in polling, while others like banning all early voting and mail-in voting are more contested policy positions.
