Hon. Ralph Munro
Ralph Munro was the Secretary of State for Washington State from 1980 to 2001. Under Mr. Munro's leadership, Washington State saw significant advancement in the efficiency of state election services including absentee voting, voter registration, election reporting and voter information. His notable achievements include implementing the presidential primary allowing independent voters to participate in the nomination process; transitioning election equipment from lever machines to more technologically advanced optical scan systems; designing the "Motor Voter" registration system that offers citizens the opportunity to register to vote at the same time they obtain a driver's license; and supporting a program that allowed Washington-based Desert Storm troops to vote via fax from the Persian Gulf. Currently, Mr. Munro serves on the board of directors for VoteHere.net, a leading provider of secure Internet voting.
