As local elections approach, the spotlight intensifies on the critical yet often overlooked aspects of the electoral process, particularly mail-in voting and the challenges it faces. Across various regions, the importance of ensuring that every vote counts has never been more emphasized, especially in the wake of recent controversies and allegations of fraud. With the deadline for mailing in ballots now passed, voters are urged to find alternative ways to ensure their ballots are submitted on time, highlighting the need for clear and accessible information on voting procedures.In addition to the complexities surrounding mail-in voting, local elections are drawing attention for their significant impact on communities. These elections, which often include decisions on local governance, school boards, and other critical issues, can have a direct and immediate effect on voters' daily lives. Despite this, they typically see lower voter turnout compared to national elections, underscoring the need for increased awareness and engagement from the public.Recent delays in implementing a pilot program for signature matching on mail-in ballots in some areas have raised concerns about the readiness and reliability of election systems. These delays, attributed to challenges in securing a suitable vendor, highlight the logistical difficulties in ensuring the integrity of mail-in voting. Such issues are crucial to address, as the authenticity of every vote is paramount in maintaining trust in the electoral process.Furthermore, allegations of forged signatures and election fraud in certain regions have cast a shadow over the electoral process, leading to heightened scrutiny and calls for stricter verification measures. These incidents serve as a reminder of the ongoing challenges in safeguarding elections against fraud, emphasizing the importance of transparency and accountability in all aspects of voting.As voters navigate these complexities, the role of clear communication and robust election infrastructure becomes increasingly evident. Ensuring that every eligible voter can cast their ballot confidently and securely is essential for the health of democracy. As local elections approach, the collective effort to overcome these challenges will be a testament to the resilience and integrity of the electoral process.

China has established a new information warfare department under the direct command of its top military body as it begins its largest restructuring of the armed forces in more than eight years.The shift of information warfare to the direct command of the Central Military Commission — the top Communist party and state organ that controls the People’s Liberation Army — would hand Chinese leader Xi Jinping even more direct control over the military, analysts said.The Information Support Force will aim to “speed up military modernisation and effectively implement the mission of the people’s armed forces in the new era”, Xi said at a ceremony in Beijing on Friday. Xi’s last major PLA restructuring in 2015 moved key functions such as logistics, training and mobilisation directly under the command of the CMC, which he chairs.Combining cyber, information and space forces under the SSF was viewed as an attempt to create similar direct control.But experts on the Chinese military said that leaders had unwound that structure as a result of an incident last year in which a Chinese surveillance balloon was shot down by the US, as well as corruption investigations into generals and a failure to achieve synergies across the different divisions within the SSF.The military leadership has been experimenting with smaller reorganisations in recent years, suggesting that the 2015 reforms were not complete.

David McCormick’s origin story goes something like this: He grew up in rural Pennsylvania, southwest of Scranton. He baled hay, trimmed Christmas trees and otherwise worked on his family’s farm. And from those humble beginnings, he rose to achieve the American dream.“I spent most of my life in Pennsylvania, growing up in Bloomsburg on my family’s farm,” Mr. McCormick, now a Republican candidate for Senate, told Pittsburgh Quarterly in 2022.“I’ve truly lived the American dream,” he wrote in a fund-raising appeal in October. “My life’s journey — from growing up on a farm in Bloomsburg, to graduating from West Point and serving in the 82nd Airborne Division, growing a business in Pittsburgh, and serving at the highest levels of government — reflects that.”“I grew up on a family farm from the time I was a kid,” he said at the Pennsylvania farm show in January.He has explicitly said and strongly implied that he grew up on a farm, claimed in 2022 that he had “started with nothing” and that he “didn’t have anything,” and he and his campaign have recently described his parents as schoolteachers.In fact, Mr. McCormick is the son of a well-regarded college president who later became chancellor of higher education systems in Pennsylvania and Minnesota. He largely grew up in the president’s sprawling hilltop residence, which students called the president’s mansion, at what is now Bloomsburg University.The family did own a farm several miles from the school, which Mr. McCormick called the “McCormick Tree Farm” in a holiday-themed ad released before his 2022 Senate bid. But it was also often known locally as a place where his mother raised Arabian horses, something of a family hobby, according to local news reports from the 1970s and ’80s. (Mr. McCormick still owns the farm, he has said. But he rents out part of it, according to a woman who said she had rented from the family for roughly three decades.)
