Free and Fair Elections in an Internet Era

From blockchain to ballot selfies, new technologies hold the promise of making voting easier and better. Unfortunately, sometimes that promise falls short in unexpected ways. In this workshop we will review the impact of new technologies on voting in America. We will examine the intended and unintended consequences of new technologies introduced to address specific problems, explore the friction caused between new technologies and old policies, and work together to develop a framework that can be used to assess potential solutions that aim to avoid creating new problems.
