2010 Election Administration and Voting Survey

Background

The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) seeks comment from the public on its 2010 Election Administration and Voting Survey (Survey). Readers will find that the 2010 Survey is very similar in content to the 2008 Survey. While most questions remain unchanged, the survey does provide some additional guidance on the EAC’s statutory requirements.

The 2010 Survey ask questions concerning the ballots cast; voter registration; overseas and military voting; Election Day activities; voting technology; and other important issues. The EAC issues the survey to meet its obligations under the Help America Vote Act to serve as national clearinghouse and resource for the compilation of information with respect to the administration of Federal elections; to fulfill its data collection requirements under the Uniform and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA); and meet its National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) mandate to collect information from states concerning the impact of that statute on the administration of Federal Elections.
