Yes, converting to a more secure domain is an allowable cost under the grant to increase security and improve the administration of federal elections. However, the allocability of the costs needs to be considered. Since the costs benefit the agency overall, not just federal elections, they must be allocated to federal and non-federal use of the domain in proportion to the benefits using any reasonable documented method. See CFR § 200.405
