Open-Source Policy Briefing
A new policy briefing by co-authors CTO E. John Sebes, Senior Strategist & former Oregon Elections Director, Deborah Scroggin, and Sr. Member of Technical Staff Dr. Clifford Wulfman outlines a pathway toward increased technology transparency that is increasingly being called for on an increasingly bipartisan basis. The briefing summarizes why proprietary, closed voting systems are contributing to public distrust and how state investments and policy decisions that reasonably deploy public technology (i.e., open-source) in election administration can lead the way in rebuilding public trust.
