The OSET (“Oh-Set”) Institute is chartered with research & development in public election technology innovation. The Institute’s flagship effort, the TrustTheVote Project is developing a publicly-owned higher integrity, lower cost, easier to use election administration platform freely available for any state to adapt and deploy. There is serious lack of innovation in election technology causing persistent issues of verifiability, accuracy, security, and transparency, as well as accessibility, ease and convenience for voters. The Project works closely with election officials worldwide. OSET is innovating all aspects of election systems from voter registration to ballot design & generation, poll books, casting, counting, results reporting and audit.

Rock the Vote engages young people in our democracy and builds their political power by registering, educating and turning them out to vote, by forcing the candidates to campaign to them, and by making politicians pay attention to youth and the issues they care about once in office. We use music, popular culture, new technologies and old fashioned grassroots organizing to engage and mobilize young people to participate in every election, and provide the information and tools they need to do so.  And we amplify the actions of those young people who step up to claim their voice in the process in order to create political and social change.

18by Vote is a non-partisan youth-led organization that aims to help 16, 17, and 18-year-olds understand how to vote, when to vote, and why to vote.
