Overview

June 23

Thanks to state legislation passed last year, Indiana counties can now allow candidates to file campaign finance reports electronically. Managing candidate filings and enforcing campaign finance compliance is a complex process that requires valuable time and resources from elections staff. Modernizing and automating these processes helps ensure consistency and accuracy – reducing demands on employees and allowing them to focus on additional aspects of running and managing elections.

Government Technology is partnering with EasyVote to present this special 30-minute webinar on what Indiana counties need to know about electronic candidate filings.
Join us June 23 at 11am PT/2pm ET to find out:

How the new law works, and how it is impacting Indiana counties
How Indiana counties can leverage smart software solutions – already in place in other states across the country – to modernize candidate filings
How the right platform offers efficiency, transparency and greater ease of use
What questions Indiana counties need to ask BEFORE adopting any new technology
