Voter Action is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing legal, research and logistical support for grassroots efforts with the goal of ensuring the  integrity of elections in the United States.

Co-Director Holly Jacobson will cover their efforts in New Mexico to date, including restoring the use of paper ballots, legal challenges to DREs (aka "black box voting"), accessibility issues for the disabled, and auditing recent elections. Holly will also speak about upcoming national legal actions, and what ordinary citizens can do to help protect their democracy from election privatization.

Washington Citizens for Fair Elections is a grassroots, multi- partisan group educating others about election reform issues and  working for open, fair, and verifiable elections.
