without government support and in the face of government opposition-not
surprisingly because the alleged misconduct benefited the incumbent party.

The Korea Conservative Political Action Conference(KCPAC) has played a key role
in supporting and tying together these efforts to uncover and present evidence
of alleged electoral misconduct and the threat it poses to South Korea’s hard-
won democracy. I am proud to have been asked to work with them on this crucial
project.

The attached reports and supplemental materials describe what happened in the
April 15, 2020 election. They also lay out the details of the electoral irregularities,
putting the evidence into the open where it can be further examined.

Besides identifying specific problems with the South Korean electoral system
that need attention and correction, this is also a timely reference and even
warning for other countries-including the United States.

The electoral process in all nations needs to be constantly ‘tended’ to keep it
honest. Without free and fair elections there simply is no democracy.

I believe the South Korean citizens who are trying to protect the integrity of
their electoral system have done free people everywhere a valuable service. They
should have our support and admiration.
