The U.S. Department of State has recently rolled out an incentive to reward individuals up to $10 million for providing any information on foreign inference in U.S. elections.

In the past five decades, foreign election interference has been reported in the United States, such as in the 1968 presidential election. In the past seven years, it has become one of the hottest topics in the country, particularly about alleged Russian and Chinese interference in the 2016 and 2020 U.S. presidential elections.

The Department of State announced on June 30 that its Rewards for Justice program โ€œseeks information leading to the identification or location of any foreign person or entity who knowingly engaged or is engaging in foreign election interference.โ€

Furthermore, the reward offer โ€œseeks information leading to the prevention, frustration, or favorable resolution of an act of foreign election interference, including by dismantling, in whole or significant part, an organization engaged in such activity,โ€ according to its website.

Chinaโ€™s Interference in US Elections

The Chinese regimeโ€™s interference in the U.S. elections has been publicly acknowledged by its own economist.

In his July 2016 speech on โ€œSino-U.S. Strategic Philosophy,โ€ Jin Canrong, a professor and associate dean of the School of International Studies at Beijingโ€™s Renmin University of China, explained how the regime interferes in U.S. elections to bring pro-Beijing candidates to power.

โ€œThe Chinese government wants to arrange Chinese investments in every single congressional district to control thousands of voters in each district,โ€ Jin said.

He claimed that with the U.S. population standing at about 312 million across 435 congressional districts at the time, there were roughly 750,000 residents living in each district.

โ€œThe voting rate in the United States is about 30 percent, which means around 200,000 residents in each congressional district vote for the representative in that district,โ€ Jin said. โ€œNormally, the difference of votes between two candidates is 10,000 or less. If China has thousands of votes on hand, China will be the boss of the candidates.โ€
