Faces of Democracy
A campaign of election officials and poll workers to strengthen U.S. elections
Despite many challenges, the 2020 election was the most secure in history and had record turnout — but no election is perfect. There are lessons to be learned and improvements to be made to ensure the integrity of our system going forward.
Learn about our work to elevate the voices of election officials and workers in the policy debate in Washington, D.C., reform the Electoral Count Act and clarify Congress’ role in counting electoral votes, and establish regular funding to states and local election officials.
