Launching the 2024 Elections Performance Index
A decade and a half in, election administration has come a long way
Today, the MIT Election Data + Science Lab is proud to announce the release of the 2024 update to the Elections Performance Index (EPI).
As many readers will know already, the index provides a nonpartisan, objective measure of election administration in each state and the District of Columbia.
