Elections and Democracy FellowEmployer: Center for Democracy and TechnologyLocation: Washington, DCCategory: Fellowship
The Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) is seeking a Fellow with policy, research, and/or legal expertise to advance our elections and democracy work. As part of CDT’s Elections and Democracy team, the Fellow will work on key issues such as election-related mis- and disinformation, online voter suppression, and election security and administration, including in conjunction with election officials, online platforms, legislators, and other stakeholders.
CDT has worked for almost a decade to improve the security and accessibility of America’s election systems, recently expanding our work to address the crisis of trust in American democracy precipitated by the onslaught of disinformation about how elections are administered. Disinformation and misinformation have also been used to suppress voter participation, particularly targeting communities of color. The democratizing power of the internet creates new opportunities — but also new threats — to support fair, informed, and trustworthy elections. We engage with these issues from both technical and policy-minded perspectives, creating solutions-oriented policy resources and actionable guidance for companies and election officials alike.
The Elections and Democracy Fellow will contribute to the organization’s work across these issues, particularly focusing on threats to the online information environment. The position requires a combination of research and advocacy skills to respond to emerging issues.
Responsibilities
Key responsibilities for this position include:
Conducting research on key issues impacting the information environment around elections, in order to raise awareness about vulnerabilities, highlight best practices, and develop/disseminate recommendations for generative AI companies, social media platforms, election officials, political campaigns, and other actors.
Authoring policy papers, reports, blog posts, and similar materials.
Engaging directly with technology companies to develop best practices and policy recommendations.
Serving as a resource to federal and state governments and political campaigns as they enact new policies and practices on the use of generative AI in political advertising and campaigning.
Coordinating advocacy efforts with other civil society organizations that have a shared interest in elections and democracy and the online information environment.
Assisting with tracking and analyzing federal and state proposals to regulate generative AI and other elections-related legislation.
Convening and engaging with technical experts, election vendors, election officials, voting and democracy advocates, academics and other stakeholders working on issues within the project’s scope.
