Notes for Attendees of Tuesday’s Vote-By Mail Presentation

I’m giving a presentation today at the University Heights Center, in Seattle, WA. It’s about Vote-By Mail, of course. So, before I go I am posting some research links, video links, and links to VBM studies, that will be discussed in the presentation. Call it my way of providing easy access to my footnotes for the powerpoint.
