Your Ballot Is Safe: Florida Elections Security

September 27, 2019

The 2016 presidential election was fraught with concerns over hacking and manipulation, bringing election security to the forefront and election administration under scrutiny.

At 6 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 27, in the Pugh Hall Ocora, three of Florida’s Election Supervisors — Paul Lux (Okaloosa), Wesley Wilcox (Marion) and Mark Earley (Leon) — provided insight into the Florida processes and procedures designed to keep voters’ ballots safe and secret. Susan MacManus, University of South Florida distinguished professor emeritus, moderated the discussion.
