 Center for the Study of Politics and Governance
 

Program for Excellence in Election Administration:


In 2007, the Center for the Study of Politics and Governance at the University of Minnesota's Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs launched the Program for Excellence in Election Administration. Minnesota has long been a leader in developing independent, non-partisan, well-trained election administrators. The program brings together non-partisan administrators and expert analysts from the region and nation to share innovations and strategies for fair and effective elections administration.

The Program for Excellence in Election Administration serves township, city, county, and state-level election staff, elected officials, county attorneys and auditors, and citizen leaders. Research into best practices is integrated into short-courses, on-line courses, seminars, conferences, and national forums addressing the key challenges facing election administrators and legislators setting election policy.

For additional information about this program, please contact Rachel Smith, Program Director,
