The National Association of Secretaries of State, the National Conference of State Legislatures, and electionline.org are pleased to announce an exciting upcoming conference, Helping Americans Vote: A State Summit on Election Reform. The summit will examine the status of election reform in the states and explore the issues that states confront as they continue to work on improving the elections process. The meeting will be October 12-13, 2003 at the Westin Diplomat Resort and Spa on the beachfront of Hollywood, Florida.
The summit will mark the one-year anniversary of the passage of the federal Help America Vote Act, and will offer an outstanding opportunity to examine progress that states have made.
