election commissions

Ballot process supervisors

Election commissions are government bodies that administer and oversee elections.

They handle voter registration, organize polling places, certify results, and ensure compliance with election laws.

In the United States, these typically operate at the state or county level: The election commission certified the results after the recount.

Some countries have a single national election commission.
