About the Resource Hub
We are committed to connecting research with practice in all areas of election science. Users on this site will find guides on various topics in election science, as well as a comprehensive, vetted resource library.
The MIT Election Data + Science Lab is committed to connecting research with practice in all areas of election science. This website builds on our 2023 project Mapping Election Administration and Election Science, which assessed the current state of knowledge and practice within the field of election administration in seven key issue areas. In building this Resource Hub, we have partnered with organizations and institutions around the country; additional information on our partners can be found here.
All resources published on the Resource Hub are first reviewed and vetted according to a standardized set of editorial guidelines, which can be viewed here.
