Hey, we know that guy!

Future Caucus (formerly Millennial Action Project) Thank you to Dean Logan (he/him) for bringing #ESRA2024 attendees to Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk newest ballot counting facility! So cool to see the place where millions of ballots are counted and how the process works behind the scenes.

Time for the #ESRA2024 election nerds to *really* geek out with a visit to LA’s ballot count facility. Thanks to Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk for hosting us!

Excellent presentation from NCSL's Katy Owens Hubler and Katie King at #ESRA2024 on election legislation in the states. USC Schwarzenegger Institute

The team worked tirelessly to gather audit data from 809 counties in 26 states, counting over 71m vote choices(!) As anyone who gathers this kind of data knows, this process involved a significant amount of sweat and a few curse words besides. #ESRA2024

Thrilled for our team to present this project they have been working incredibly hard on. Grateful to all the work that Samuel Baltz, Fernanda Gonzales, Kevin Guo, & Jacob Jaffe, with Charles Stewart III, have done to being this to life!

We have a full house for Legislative Oversight of Election Administration: Bipartisan Lessons from Young Legislators on the Frontlines of Election Policy!

Rep. Mary-Katherine Stone (D-VT)
Rep. Kristine Reeves (D-WA)

LIVING for the color coordination on today’s #ESRA2024 panel! Great to hear from legislators and their perspectives on election policies.

Always great to hear new research from our friends at PORES; today at #ESRA2024 they present work on RCV and mismarked ballots.

Day 2 of #ESRA2014 starts w Matt Lamb presenting our work on poll worker retention

We’re back for day two of the Election Science, Reform, and Administration conference! Today’s topics include poll workers, ranked-choice voting, California’s Voters’ Choice Act, and more.

Day 2 of #ESRA2024 is underway at USC Schwarzenegger Institute with discussions on vote by mail by Marc Meredith.

Chris Hollins Melanie Mason is here for a Q&A with Chris Hollins. She’s curious about how he found his way to his current role given his background consulting government agencies. “My job was to become an expert overnight,” he said. “To ask all the dumb questions.”

Thank you so much for the shout-out on our Local Election Official (LEO) Survey work since 2018, Will Adler, at #ESRA2024 . EVIC is gearing up for the fielding of our 2024 LEO Survey as we post this. Stay tuned! cc: gronke Paul Manson Michelle M. Shafer EVIC (Elections & Voting Information Center)
