Mike Lindell 'absolutely' ready for Trump to name him head of federal election security

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell said that his team is ready to "plug right in" if President-elect Donald Trump picks him to head election security for the federal government.

In a recent interview with Wired, Lindell insisted that he was continuing his crusade to secure elections despite Trump's win in 2024.

"I've been trying to get rid of these electronic voting machine companies in the United States for four years," the pillow executive explained. "That's been my whole focus. And that doesn't stop, but hopefully it gets easier."

According to Wired, Lindell has spent $40 million of his own money while trying to prove the 2020 election was stolen from Trump. Cybersecurity experts have said there was no evidence of widespread fraud in 2020.

"I haven't taken a break," Lindell insisted. "After the election, I went on my annual hunting trip with my sons and my nephew. That was two days, but I was actually working from the deer stand. I'm always working on my phone."

The election fraud crusader hoped Trump would establish a "bureau that's really focused on keeping our elections secure." And he said he would be willing to run the agency.

"Oh, absolutely, my team would plug right in," he insisted.

The federal government already runs the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), which is charged with securing elections.

After the 2024 election, CISA Director Jen Easterly said there was "no evidence of any malicious activity that had a material impact on the security or integrity of our election infrastructure."
