Founded in 2020 by voting rights attorney Marc Elias, Democracy Docket provides reporting and analysis on election-related issues while also serving as a comprehensive resource for tracking voting and election litigation across the country. Through its journalism and legal coverage, the organization helps inform the public about the laws, policies, and court cases that shape American democracy.
