Idaho implements election security measures as voters gear up for 'historic' election day

BOISE, Idaho — With the 2024 election just over 40 days away, Idaho’s Secretary of State and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency director, Jen Easterly, hosted a press conference to discuss election security in the state.

Secretary of State Phil McGrane said Idahoans can feel fully confident as they head to the polls this November and their ballot is secure and counted.

“When they head to the polls can have absolute confidence that their vote will count and that nobody is tampering with the systems that we have here in our state,” McGrane said.

Through initiatives like only using only paper ballots, routine equipment testing, voter identification requirements and post-election audits, McGrane said voting is as safe as it can be, and the state has been working hard to ensure that.
