The vote-by-mail 2021 NC elections required NCs to change their approaches to candidate recruitment and to get-out-the-vote efforts. Additionally, there were a number of avoidable and unavoidable issues that came with the election this year. This session will examine what worked, what didn't work, how well the City Clerk and DONE supported NCs, and the extent to which voter registration and vote-by-mail increased or decreased participation for different types of voters.
