41st Republican Club Meeting

Our guest speaker for our January 3, 2022 meeting will be Sherry Jarrell, Ph.D., speaking on her “Voter Integrity”Project.  Ms. Jarrell is a graduate of UD, receiving her Ph.D in finance and economics from the University of Chicago.  Retired from 31 years as a professor, she works as a part time consultant and expert witness in state and federal court on a variety of economic and finance issues.  She is the recipient of an international research award and twice was Faculty of the Year at Temple University.

The “Voter Integrity” Project is designed to reassure the voters of Delaware that the machine ballot they cast on November 8, 2022 (and beyond) is safe, and that their vote will count.

The Voter Integrity Project team seeks to fully understand the “chain of custody” of the ballot from the time the individual enters the polling place until the vote is counted by the Department/Board of Elections. The team will write up, in objective, factual, conversational tones, what we have learned about that process, and share it with the voting public in regular communications via Press Releases, Press Conferences, and presentations to interested civic and neighborhood groups.  We expect this will generate new questions about the process. If so, we will then revisit knowledgeable sources at the Department of Elections, in Think Tanks and beyond, to get answers to those questions, and repeat the process of sharing what we have learned until those questions are reasonably addressed.
