  • Will the midterms happen? Your election questions, answered
    Date: July 13, 2026
    Location: Online
    Category: Webinar

    Will the 2026 midterms happen? Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Elections happen because thousands of local officials follow state and local laws requiring them to happen — and history shows they’ve done so before, even under immense pressure. The greater danger isn’t no election, but one that’s chaotic, unfairly challenged, or deliberately cast as illegitimate after the fact. Got more questions about the midterms? Submit them to Votebeat reporters with your RSVP on Eventbrite, and they’ll give you the long answer live. Votebeat is a nonprofit newsroom specialized in explaining how elections work. Each of our reporters and editors spend every day covering voting rules, election administration, misinformation, election lawsuits, local officials, and the systems that determine how ballots are cast and counted. Ask them anything!

    When: 5pm Eastern.

VVSG 2.0, which was adopted by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) in February 2021, establishes the most rigorous federal standards for certifying voting systems to date.

More than five years later, two systems have been certified to VVSG 2.0, and multiple systems are in the pipeline.

Even after a voting system has been federally certified, deployment does not happen overnight. States first have to certify it, procure it, integrate it into existing systems, and train workers to use it.
