She supported the job killing trade deal with south korea. She supported the Transpacific Partnership which will not only destroy our manufacturing but it , will make america subject to the rulings of foreign governments. And it is not going to happen. [cheering] i pledge to never sign any trade agreement that hurts our workers, or that diminishes our freedom and independence. Signed bader ever trade deals. America first again. American first. Instead, i will make individual deals with individual countries. No longer will we enter into transactions with many countries that are thousands of pages long and which no one from our country even reads or understands. We are going to enforce all trade violations against any country that cheats. [cheering] this includes stopping chinas outrageous theft of intellectual property, along with their illegal product dumping, and their devastating currency manipulation. That everhe greatest came about, they are the greatest currently manipulators ever
Cybersecurity and elections very seriously. At the same time we face many other challenges to ensure every vote counts if we count both. Some of the challenges are the direct result of human action related to Older Technology and as we have seen in the past even face risks from natural events such as major storms. I would like each of you to comment on how you would rate the current cybersecurity risk in the upcoming election as it relates to other issues. From my perspective, my entire orientation and of my organization it is looking at the cybersecurity risks and threats and so all of the other things youve talked about our outside of our purview with one exception which is the Contingency Planning that the state and other jurisdictions and local jurisdictions are encouraged to do under the voluntary system guidelines can also protect against these other kinds of natural disasters and other things youve referenced. I would put at risk again as i indicated on election day very low for

Every voter gets a ballot and they can choose to mail that ballot in our drop the ballot off at a site or go went early to an early voting site as mr. Wallace mentioned or they can go on election day to a voting center. I dont mean to interrupt but to clarify and organize someone wants to vote in the Elections Office on election day they can stand in the booth and vote. Anybody can do that. Some people dont because its easier to mail it. I think the states are learning from that experience and trying to figure out whats best for their state.
