Jaeckle Center for Law, Democracy, and Governance

The Jaeckle Center is a research center focused on the study of law and democratic governance. 

The Center seeks to advance research and scholarship on election law and democracy, including voting rights, redistricting, election administration, election integrity, campaign finance reform, state election law frameworks, and electoral reform, and to serve as a forum for convening leading scholars, lawyers, policy makers, election administrators, and advocates for reform in these areas. It seeks to advance interdisciplinary research, public discourse, and education that can inform and guide legislative reform and advocacy aimed at improving democratic representation, accountability, and responsiveness.
