Officials said they fixed coding errors that created problems with the state’s online voting records, primary election results not affected.
Here’s a quick preview!
The Nevada Secretary of State’s office announced it had fixed coding errors in files used to provide nightly updates on voter registration history that led to misreported records.
In a statement issued by the office early Monday evening, officials said that some of the steps county workers are required to file in the system ”were not taken, resulting in inaccurate data” and re-emphasized that the errors did not affect the results of the presidential primary election.
Specifically, officials explained that every county uploads its voter registration data to the secretary of state’s database each night. The secretary of state’s office then executes code to create a single voter registration file that users see when they log into the website.

Article: Arizona elections official calls for federal lawmakers to include funding for election administration and security.
Congress recently cleared legislation to extend government funding into March, but one Arizona elections official would like to see federal lawmakers include funding for election administration and security.
Patty Hansen, recorder for Coconino County in Northern Arizona, has been involved with elections administration for 36 years, and said with the continuing exodus of many election recorders and directors in recent years because of increased threats and harassment, what remains is what she called a “huge institutional void.”
She pointed out in rural counties such as hers, funding to improve election systems would go a long way.
“Some jurisdictions are wealthier than others and have a better tax base,” Hansen observed. “I do think it is something the federal government should be looking at for providing the necessary funds across the nation because elections are the foundation of our democracy.”

Article: While the Left continues to deny partisanship involvement with “Zuckerbucks,” CTCL now has a new program, the U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence.
It turns out that right-wing activists have learned the same lesson as Hollywood: Everyone loves a sequel.
You may remember the nonprofit Center for Tech and Civic Life from the so-called “Zuckerbucks” controversy during the 2020 election. That was when a couple of nonprofits including the Center for Tech and Civic Life distributed hundreds of millions of dollars that had been donated by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, as no-strings-attached grants to local election officials. Despite no evidence of partisanship (and lots of people checked), right-wing activists and critics labeled the funding a political act aimed at boosting turnout of Democratic voters.
CTCL now has a new program, the U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence. It’s a group of 15 counties, all of whom submitted applications, who work together to share best practices and create things such as a voluntary set of standards for recruitment, training, management, and retention of poll workers, a major concern for election officials around the country.

The Brunswick County election office has withdrawn membership from The US Alliance for Election Excellence.
The Brunswick County election office has withdrawn its membership from The US Alliance for Election Excellence.
Elections Director Sara LaVere told the Brunswick County Board of Commissioners of the decision during the county’s goals workshop. The workshop is designed for county departments to share their successes, shortfalls, goals and needs.
In April 2023, the Brunswick County Board of Elections voted to remain in the Alliance after county commissioners asked the county elections office to withdraw, citing concerns that membership in the Alliance would bring partisan funding to the board of elections and as well as the organization’s alleged connection to Facebook founder and billionaire Mark Zuckerberg.
