THE ROAD FORWARD IN 2021
In a year like none other, election officials, their staff, and countless community members came together to make this historic election happen. Democracy is a team sport and that has never been more true than this year. Voter interest in mail ballots soared as fears of the virus grew, and the National Vote at Home Institute worked diligently to present best practices and innovative solutions to aid states in a successful vote by mail expansion for both voters and administrators. Here you'll find our assessment of how 2020 went and what we can do in 2021 to make elections even better.

WHAT IS VOTING AT HOME?
Voting by mail — also known as voting at home — is a secure, time-tested way to increase voter participation. Voters get their ballot delivered to them weeks before Election Day, fill it out at their convenience, then return it either in-person or by mail.
VOTE AT HOME DASHBOARD
The 2020 coronavirus pandemic exposed the longstanding failures of the single day, in-person election model, and voters turned to voting at home as a way to preserve their health and the health of their communities. Explore these interactive maps featuring the latest data on how American voters are choosing to vote from home, how accessible voting at home is in every state, and the policies that dictate how voting at home works.
