Reich argues that voter fraud—which audits show occurs at negligible rates—is not the real threat to elections; instead, Citizens United and Super PACs enable wealthy donors to dominate campaign spending at historically high levels, which critics argue distorts electoral outcomes. Documented election spending from Super PACs has reached record levels, though whether this directly undermines 'integrity' versus simply shifting power toward wealthier interests remains debated among scholars. What the post doesn't note: Democratic Super PACs also raised record funds in recent cycles, so the critique of outside spending as a systemic problem isn't unique to one party.
