About Scrutineers

Scrutineers is a non-partisan organization centering our work on election protection. It is our mission to mobilize our members around activities that help make local, state, and national elections more transparent, accurate, and accessible for all voters. 

While you may be familiar with work that protects citizens’ right to vote, which is incredibly important, you may not know that there is an entire sector of electoral work that is focused on the votes themselves. It is just as important to do our part in making sure votes are counted correctly, recorded without corruption, and reported accurately. These processes are crucial to ensuring that elections reflect the true desires of voters. Scrutineers is a non-partisan community of Democrats, Republicans, small party, and unaffiliated voters seeking to do just that.
