03:10:18 Arlene Weible : Yea Oregon! 03:17:12 Chris Brown: For information on voting, try: How to Vote in Every State (youtube) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7SMwipBlDwBPEwxq8QD8sw Or US Vote Foundation’s local election official directory https://www.usvotefoundation.org/vote/eoddomestic.htm 03:17:48 Lynda Kellam: GODORT’s guide too: https://godort.libguides.com/votingtoolkit 03:18:12 Debbi MacLeod: Process for disabled voters in CO https://myctbl.cde.state.co.us/electronic-ballot-marking-system-instructions 03:19:12 Chris Brown: Table of Contents: NCSL’s Elections Resources https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/election-laws-and-procedures-overview.aspx 03:24:17 Chris Brown: CUNY’s Census Hard to Count interactive, data-rich maps https://www.censushardtocountmaps2020.us/ 03:25:49 Amy Brunvand: I'm very worried that the 2020 Census is on track to be so inaccurate that the data is useless. What would happen if the 2020 Census fails? 03:26:48 Mallory Bateman: In a lot of rural and tribal areas, the invitation from the Census Bureau was delayed until mid-May. The outreach operation was called update leave: https://www.census.gov/library/fact-sheets/2020/dec/update-leave.html 03:26:55 Chris Brown: NCSL’s Differential Privacy for Census Data Explained https://www.ncsl.org/research/redistricting/differential-privacy-for-census-data-explained.aspx 03:27:14 Chris Brown: Esri’s easy-to-follow explanation of differential privacy, posted Aug. 3 https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/39c11710526645069b6f4230015a7c43 03:27:28 Kate Tallman (CU Boulder): I agree with Amy. Is there any recourse that the NCSL can take? Do you know of any states or organizations that are trying to take action on this timeline decision by the census? 03:27:29 susanne: Amy- I'm guessing the census would utilize data from the ACS and other surveys, but it could be a mess. 03:28:10 Arlene Weible : It has been really hard for libraries to promote census participation since many have been closed down during the pandemic. Less access to public computers is likely contributing to low response rates in areas with low Internet access. 03:28:54 Amy Brunvand: I remember a court case where sampling was not allowed for redistricting before the ACS was developed. It could be a real mess. 03:29:55 Carmen Miller: Do we know if/how differential privacy will impact redistricting? 03:30:48 Jennifer boettcher: Promotional as library open up? "complete your census before someone knocks on your door" 03:31:36 Mallory Bateman: In many states, Non-Response Follow-Up (door knocking) is starting August 11 03:32:15 Katherine Miles: I like that Jennifer. 03:32:25 stanley.stumbaugh: Is that set in stone, or could it be delayed due to COVID? 03:32:37 susanne: Carmen, I recall from a census presentation that the general number should be the same, but the details, like race, are altered- if the count is missing 40% of people it will still be inaccurate but the efforts to protect privacy shouldn't change the number who are counted 03:33:17 Carmen Miller: Thanks Susanne! 03:33:57 Chris Brown: NCSL’s 2020 Census Resources and Legislation, which has links to just about everything, https://www.ncsl.org/research/redistricting/2020-census-resources-and-legislation.aspx 03:38:48 Jennifer boettcher: If the election puts someone else in the Whitehouse and the Census is still being calculated. Which numbers will be delivered to Congress for appropriations: the lame duck executive or numbers direct from Census? 03:39:41 Jennifer boettcher: Sorry Re-Districting not appropriations 03:44:51 Jennifer boettcher: Has anyone used your maker hubs to make a puzzle of your districts yet? 03:45:14 susanne: Jennifer- I love that idea! 03:45:30 Chris Brown: NCSL’s Redistricting Law 2020 book https://www.google.com/search?q=ncsl+redistricting+law+2020&rlz=1C1GCEB_enUS869US870&oq=NCSL+redistricting+law&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j69i59j0j69i60l3.12225j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 03:45:59 Chris Brown: NCSL’s Into the Thicket: A Starter Kit for Legislative Staff https://www.ncsl.org/research/redistricting/into-the-thicket-a-redistricting-starter-kit-for-legislative-staff.aspx 03:47:26 Jennifer boettcher: How does one get on the Commission? Is there a role for non-elected members? 03:48:59 Arlene Weible : The status of the commission initiative is confusing in Oregon. Attorney General and Secretary of State disagree about validity of initiative petitions, I believe 03:51:16 Chris Brown: Wendy will be happy to continue the conversation; she can be reached at 303-802-6673 or wendy.underhill@ncsl.org. 03:51:44 Arlene Weible : Back to an election question … Has NCSL been tracking the reports of Post Office procedure delays that could impact the delivery of ballots in November? 03:53:53 Arlene Weible : Also, if don't receive a ballot, can call to get one 03:54:30 Jey Wann: Really interesting topic and great presentation!
