Secure elections start with secure voting machines. A new federal voter verification standard sets the highest bar yet for certified voting equipment — but getting these systems deployed nationwide will take years and billions in investment.

WA state will soon require that election offices adopt .gov (among other security improvements). This is a welcome improvement—only about half of WA counties were on .gov when we checked last year. Other states should follow suit!

It's time for out of the box thinking on funding the federal component of elections in this country. We should allow American taxpayers to decide how much to send to election security

There is a lot of frustration at the moment that Congress isn't keeping up with its job. @BPC_Bipartisan's @JDRackey, @popvoxfdn @DV_Stewart, @danielschuman, @mls1776, @Levin_Center, and others tell Congress it's partly because it doesn't have the resources to do it. Targeted investments can turn things around.
Shoutout to @justinpapp1 for always covering these important stories.

If you have not returned your mail ballot and you want to vote in person, you have two options:
1. Bring your ballot packet, including the outer envelope, to your polling place to be voided. You can then vote ; OR 2. If you don’t have your mail ballot, you can vote by provisional ballot at your polling place. Your county elections office will verify that you didn’t vote by mail before counting your provisional ballot.
ALT If you have not returned your completed mail ballot and you want to vote in person, you have two options: If you have your mail ballot - Bring your ballot packet, including the outer envelope, to your polling place to be voided. You can then vote on your county's voting system. If you don't have your mail ballot - You can vote by provisional ballot at your polling place. Your county board of elections will then verify that you didn't vote by mail before counting your provisional ballot.

One of the most persistent capacity problems for Congress is its “calendaring catastrophe.” My @BPC_Bipartisan colleagues, @RachelOrey @lilykincannon, @JulianneLempert, & I propose 3 changes: bipartisanpolicy.org/blog/op…

These policies have garnered broad, bipartisan support, and states with the highest levels of adoption vary demographically, geographically, and politically. Â
#Michigan and #RhodeIsland join #Colorado and #Georgia as the only states to meet 100% compliance.

Since 2022, @BPC_Bipartisan has tracked state adoption of 12 election policies that we think can serve as a minimum standard for elections.
You might be surprised to hear some good news—adoption of these policies has mostly increased substantially!
26 Sep 2024
The 12 key policies span 3 categories: #voter registration, casting a ballot, and counting the vote.
#NorthDakota, #Michigan, #NorthCarolina, and #Maine saw the largest increases in reforms implemented since 2022.

🆕 A growing number of states have adopted election policy reforms that boost voter accessibility and #election security. Â

First outlined in our 2022 report, these policies are cornerstones of modern election administration. Â

NEW: Moving to a .gov website is the best thing that an election official can do to avoid being impersonated online.
We found that the percentage of election websites using .gov increased from 25% to 31% in the last 2 years.
Heartening, but there's a long way to go yet!

Kudos to @sccvote and @tarrantelection, the largest counties to move to .gov in the last 2 years, with over 2M total registered voters!

We can learn a few things—much of it confirms what other sources like @ElectionsVoting has found. First, salaries for election workers have been basically flat over time.
