As Election Day approaches, prosecutors may encounter a range of legal, operational, and public safety issues connected to the election process. This one-hour webinar will provide prosecutors with practical guidance on preparing for election-related matters, coordinating with election officials and law enforcement partners, and understanding the legal considerations that may arise before, during, and after an election.
Gary Restaino, former United States Attorney for the District of Arizona and a member of the Government Counsel & Election Officials Network (GCEON), will draw on his experience in federal prosecution, public integrity, civil rights, and election-related matters to discuss key considerations for prosecutors as they prepare for the upcoming election. The program will also highlight resources and strategies that can help offices establish clear lines of communication, anticipate potential issues, and respond appropriately before and when election-related concerns arise.
Hosted by the Association of Prosecuting Attorneys (APA) and the Government Counsel & Election Officials Network (GCEON).
