Elections

Elections are a hallmark of democracy, which makes them prime targets for autocratic interference. The Alliance for Securing Democracy at GMF tracks elections across the United States and Europe, analyzes the autocratic threats facing countries’ election infrastructure and electoral processes, and makes recommendations for steps nations can take to secure them. To prevent bad actors from undermining the will of the people, it is essential that democracies pursue data-driven policies that strengthen impartial election administration, protect election workers, and empower voters.
