During the course of our work at the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), we hear the challenges and needs of local election officials from across the country. CTCL recently undertook an effort to address the biggest need local election officials are facing this year, funding. Now we are looking to address another.

The newly designed Election Resources for Safe Elections is a curated list of practical, actionable, and free resources that local election officials can use to administer a safe 2020 election, covering the election process from start to finish. Have questions about how COVID-19 may impact your poll workers and voters? Check out our “Public Health” category. Speaking of poll workers, need ideas on how to recruit some more? Well, we have 50 for you. Resources also cover communication, in-person voting, mail & absentee voting, and drop boxes.

At a time when local election officials and their staff are stretched thin, the resources represent the work and effort of election officials and experts from across the country to help provide a safe, secure, and inclusive process for voters.
