Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin has announced the formation of the Louisiana Commission on Election Integrity and Voting. Ardoin says the bipartisan panel will discuss ways to make sure voters have confidence in Louisiana elections and how to combat voter fatigue.
“And then of course we want to see how we can improve the voting experience during early voting and election day,” said Ardoin.
Ardoin says the commission will look at all aspects of voting and the goal is to enhance the confidence in Louisiana’s election process.
“Look at ways to improve our absentee ballot process if there are any ways to improve it, looking at issues of just general experience of voters, do we need more early voting sites,” said Ardoin.
Ardoin says the commission will begin meeting after the 2021 legislative session and then issue a final report before February 1st. He says the panel is made up of a diverse group of experts.
“We have the NAACP representation, we have former legislators that have worked on the committees of oversight and then we als9o have community activists group like the family forum,” said Ardoin.
