County governments play a crucial role in maintaining the smooth operation of our communities, and the security and efficiency of election infrastructure is no exception. Election infrastructure is a rapidly evolving field, with new challenges such as cybersecurity threats, resource and personnel shortages, and shifting voter expectations.
