Update (September 11, 2024): Due to high demand from local election offices, the Institute for Responsive Government’s nonpartisan A More Responsive Government 2024 Grant Program has exhausted the $6 million dollars currently available for grantmaking.
Although the Institute for Responsive Government cannot guarantee that additional grantmaking funds will become available, we encourage you to submit an application below to join our waitlist as soon as possible.
If additional funding becomes available for jurisdictions on our waitlist, applications will be considered based on the time the application was submitted. We will contact jurisdictions on the waitlist as soon as possible should funding become available.
Far too often, local election offices are severely underfunded. Yet year after year, our federal government has failed to provide the consistent, adequate funding required to keep our democracy running smoothly and securely.
