State Updates

Our team of researchers is hard at work compiling and analyzing reports about the experience of voters and election officials as they navigate voting in 2026. Reports from previous years also remain available. The menu at left lists all states that we have written about as part of the Elections Performance Central Project, and the states we are focusing on in 2026 are linked and listed below. 

State pages include memos, such as our primary election after-action reports, and other related resources. Links to official reports, reports by citizen groups, commentary, and media accounts that inform an understanding of current voting challenges and approaches to meeting them may be added.
