What is EL@M?

Here’s how EL@M described itself:

Welcome to the Election Law @ Moritz web site, your source of information about election laws, election litigation, and election news from around the nation. The focus of the EL@M web site is election administration – laws dealing with voter registration, voter ID, early and absentee voting, provisional balloting, poll workers and polling place procedures, recounts and election contests, and other related issues. Our mission is to help the public, lawyers, academics and educators, journalists, policymakers and other civic leaders, and election administrators better identify and understand issues confronting the world of election administration.

The web site includes sections devoted to developments in major pending cases; brief reports from the election law news wire; in-depth information and analysis; and expert commentary. Readers may search for information by topic or by state.

The EL@M web site is supported by the Election Law @ Moritz Program of The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law.
