True the Vote

True the Vote is a conservative organisation focused on what it describes as election Integrity, operating through voter roll challenges, canvassing operations, and data-sharing with government agencies. In 2025, a DOGE employee signed a voter data agreement with True the Vote on 24 March 2025, formalising cooperation on a voter roll screening project using Social Security Administration data. The Trump administration publicly admitted this partnership when the 17% error rate in the resulting SAVE system screening became public .

True the Vote was founded by Catherine Engelbrecht in Texas and gained significant visibility after the 2020 election, when it was central to claims of widespread voter fraud in Georgia and other states. Those claims were repeatedly rejected in court. The organisation attracted controversy for sharing voter roll data with documentarians and political operatives, leading to multiple legal disputes about the handling of sensitive voter information.

The 2025 DOGE partnership marks True the Vote's formal integration into a federal government data operation for the first time, raising questions about the appropriate role of a private political organisation in voter roll maintenance. Two former DOGE staffers were referred to a government watchdog for possible Hatch Act violations in connection with this work, indicating federal ethics concerns about the partnership.
