WATCH: Commish_Schmidt sat down with Laurenjmayk for his first television interview since being nominated by Governor-elect Josh Shapiro’s as Pennsylvania’s Secretary of the Commonwealth.
“I think 2020 was a good preparation for sort of where we are right now and being aware of, you know, all the misinformation, disinformation out there and efforts to undermine confidence in elections,” Schmidt said. “And I think it’s important we do everything we can to restore confidence in elections so that voters can vote, they can vote with confidence, however they choose to vote regardless of their party affiliation.
Governor-elect Josh Shapiro announced Thursday his nomination for Al Schmidt as Secretary of the Commonwealth to oversee the next presidential election for Pennsylvania. NBC10’s Lauren Mayk sat down with Schmidt for his first television interview as nominee about what some of his plans would be if he were voted in.
“The more that we can reduce the time between the last vote being cast and the last vote being counted, the better,” Schmidt said. “Because it’s really in that window of time that so many bad faith efforts occur to undermine confidence in election results from candidates who are going to lose.”
