Paying for Elections at the State and Local Level

Join us for the first webinar in our second annual Books and Ballots webinar series at noon ET on Tuesday, June 24, for a conversation titled, “Paying for Elections at the State and Local Level.”

Elections are an essential government function. How are they funded, and what happens when funding falls short? This webinar explores the practical realities of election funding at the state and local levels.

Researchers from the Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR) and the Elections and Voting Information Center (EVIC) will discuss common funding challenges, approaches to budgeting for critical needs, and opportunities to strengthen financial planning and sustainability for election offices.

This year’s Books and Ballots series is a partnership with the Center for Election Innovation and Research.
