As a Center for Election Excellence, and part of the initial cohort making up the U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence, Macoupin County received grant funding allowing them to purchase a building for a more secure and accessible space to administer elections.
“We’ll make sure every voter has a good experience, can trust that their vote’s getting counted, and feels like the election process worked for them,” says Macoupin County Clerk Pete Duncan. “This building, this grant, this opportunity helps make sure that’s going to happen in Macoupin. And hopefully that’s something that can happen in rural counties—all counties, all across the country.”
The U.S. Alliance for Election Excellence is thrilled to be able to support Macoupin County’s election infrastructure upgrade, one that will serve their voters well in years to come.
