Elections and Redistricting Office Hours

Catch the Elections Team During Office Hours

To stay connected with legislators and legislative staff, the NCSL Elections Team will begin holding Office Hours—a virtual meeting to speak with our team on any elections or redistricting-related topics. Please feel free to hop on with your question, and stay for as little or as long as you like. You can also send us your questions in advance, and we'll be sure to find the answer or find an expert who knows the answer. All persons interested are welcome to attend. 

These drop-in calls will take place bi-weekly on Tuesdays. If you can't make it on Tuesdays, you can always email us directly.

If you are new to Zoom meetings, here is a handy how-to guide to help.
