How Secure is our Election System?

The election system of `the United States was designated a critical infrastructure in 2017. The integrity of our election system is essential for citizens to trust the outcome of local, state and national elections. In this podcast we look at one individual county and the security measures used from a physical and cybersecurity perspective, but then also preventing voter fraud from occurring.

The podcast guest is Mary Hall, Auditor, Thurston County, Washington. First elected Thurston County Auditor in 2013, Mary Hall’s elections career began in Pierce County in 1996. She received her National Certification in Elections Administration in 2004 through Auburn University and the Elections Center. Hall currently serves on the Elections Center board of directors. Mary Hall is an award-winning elections administrator and leader. Known for partnerships and innovations, Hall has over three decades of professional leadership experience in the corporate and government sectors.
