For all the concern in recent years that U.S. democracy is on the brink, in danger or under threat, a report out Tuesday offers a glimmer of good news for American voters worried that casting a ballot will be difficult in 2024. Put simply, the new data shows that voting in America has gotten easier over the past two decades. More voters have the ability to cast a ballot before Election Day, with the majority of U.S. states now offering some form of early in-person voting and mail voting to all voters. Miles Parks, NPR.

New design resources to empower poll workers on Election Day
These resources are for anyone writing or updating their jurisdiction’s poll worker manuals.
By the Center for Civic Design
Poll workers are on the frontlines of elections. Manuals support poll workers in following the procedures they learn during training. They are essential to ensure an election runs smoothly.
The three new non-partisan generic resources are publicly available on the U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence Resource Library, and make it easy for any election jurisdiction to create manuals that are well-designed and easy to navigate.
Great manuals save time on election day by empowering poll workers with the answers they need rather than needing to call the office. These resources aim to help election offices create great manuals that answer questions and empower election workers to feel confident while doing their jobs.
