        Methodology

        NBC News researchers compiled information from state election officials, state websites, official social media communications, and enacted state laws related to voting and elections in order to identify the rules that will be in effect for the 2022 primaries and general election.
        Researchers compared these rules to what was in effect for the 2020 general elections in order to identify changes. States have been classified as having a major change if the voter experience has changed in notable ways compared to 2020, either because of enacted legislation or because Covid-19 provisions in effect in 2020 have not been renewed. Major changes include, but are not limited to, significant shifts in deadlines that affect the number of days of early voting, adding or removing ID or other requirements for casting a ballot, and adding or eliminating a particular method of voting such as early in-person voting.
        Researchers will continue to monitor and track this information and update the site accordingly.
