Continuity & Operational Readiness for Elections (CORE) Playbook

A shared framework for coordination, continuity, and resilience across the full election cycle. This CORE (Continuity & Operational Readiness for Elections) Playbook provides a unified framework to support that coordination.

Active
Since 2026

This CORE (Continuity & Operational Readiness for Elections) Playbook provides a unified framework to support that coordination. It reinforces a fundamental principle: the relationship between elections and emergency management is not optional. Each discipline depends on the other to maintain the continuity of a critical government function, safeguard voting processes, ensure the availability of facilities and resources, and support the safety of the public and the workforce. Effective coordination requires shared planning, defined roles, established communication pathways, and routine joint exercises and information exchange.
