We are posted up at the state board of election commissioner's meeting (just a few moments late - new building!). The room is small - maybe 12 chairs - but it's standing room only. Internet is a bit spotty, but we'll do our best. As a reminder, this is regarding the new rule required "wet" signatures instead of electronic signatures on voter registration. @GetLoudArkansas was using electronic signatures on voter registration, making it easier to register hard-to-reach voters.

Good afternoon! In addition to fiscal coverage, we'll be live tweeting today's State Board of Election Commissioners meeting at 1:30pm. On the agenda: the validity of electronic signatures for voter registration applications. This is a biggie, folks. #arpx Follow along with us on this thread. Today's decision will have profound impacts for voter registration efforts in Arkansas, which has some of the strictest + least accessible voting laws in the country. #arpx
