False claims of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election have left many Americans confused and distrustful of the electoral process. Local journalists can and should take the opportunity to inform readers about how elections are run at the state level to help mitigate the spread of misinformation and increase voter confidence.
To aid in that, here's a recording of a webinar held July 26 by the Center for Effective Public Management at the Brookings Institution. The webinar "explored how electoral processes are managed in the states, the level of security these processes have, and the vital role of secretaries of state in guaranteeing that every vote is safe, accessible, and counted as the 2022 midterms near," according to the webinar's website. "Secretary of State Katie Hobbs (D-Ariz.) presented a keynote address and participate in a fireside chat with Brookings’s Elaine Kamarck. Afterward, an expert panel further discussed the ways in which American elections are managed at the state and local levels."
