The U.S. Election Assistance Commission and Pennsylvania Department of State hosted an Election Data Summit at the Community College of Philadelphia from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. on Thursday, July 12, 2018. The gathering took place prior to the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) and National Association of State Election Directors (NASED) summer conferences in Philadelphia. This unique summit brought together some of the nation's most respected election data experts to examine ways election officials could use all types of data to improve processes and inform decision making. Each of the summit's four panels focused on a distinct aspect of the election cycle and explore different sources for election data, including voter registration databases, electronic poll books, voting equipment, and post-election audits.
