Voting from Abroad

Military and overseas voters are one of the most disenfranchised demographics in the country. In the 2020 election, military and overseas voters voted at a 7% rate, ten times lower than the domestic average. This project proposes a wizard tool that government agencies can use to help overseas voters register more easily, along with a set of tech best practices that state election officials should utilize to encourage overseas voter registration.

Click right to view various resources for navigating the obstacles to overseas voting, including a playbook explaining how election officials can reduce obstacles to overseas voting and a video demonstrating the wizard tool.
