Technology and Elections Fellow

States United Democracy Center, a nonpartisan organization focused on the critical role states play in election protection, is seeking a Technology and Elections Fellow to be housed in our Research and Analytics team. The Research and Analytics team produces original and actionable research that furthers the mission of the organization: to promote free, fair, and secure elections in the U.S. The Technology and Elections Fellow will report to the Senior Vice President of Research and Analytics.
About the Organization:
The States United Democracy Center is a new and growing nonpartisan organization advancing free, fair, and secure elections. We focus on connecting pro-democracy state and local officials, law enforcement leaders, and other partners across the U.S. with the tools and expertise they need to safeguard our democracy. During the 2020 election, then as the Voter Protection Program, we quickly became a go-to resource for state leaders, the press, and partner organizations. By bringing together current and former governors, secretaries of state, attorneys general, and law enforcement leaders for the first time, we helped build a nonpartisan firewall against those trying to undermine democracy. Now as States United, we support these partners in protecting the integrity of elections, holding those who seek to undermine democracy accountable, and preventing acts of political violence.
