Caltech 2024 Election Integrity Project
Election security collab between researchers and election officials to combat misinformation

It’s hard to believe but it’s been over two decades since the Caltech/MIT Voting Technology Project was founded. During that time, we have seen the dramatic evolution and growth of academic research about election administration and technology. In the immediate aftermath of the 2000 presidential election, the founders of this project scoured the research literature and found that there was not a great deal of work we could draw upon to guide the project’s initial efforts.
But that has now changed considerably, with important new work appearing weekly in peer-reviewed journals, with academic conferences devoted to advancing the study of election science, and with scholars throughout the United States and other nations devoting considerable time to studying many aspects of the election process.
