SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose: In accordance with the
Government in the Sunshine Act
(Sunshine Act), Public Law 94–409, as
amended (5 U.S.C. 552b), the U.S.
Election Assistance Commission (EAC)
will conduct an open meeting to review
significant 2022 Election
Administration and Voting Survey
(EAVS) findings, and how the EAVS can
be utilized by election officials,
academics, and other stakeholders to
improve elections.
Agenda: The U.S. Election Assistance
Commission (EAC) will host panels
featuring election administrators, EAC
staff, and election subject matter
experts. They will discuss the findings
of the 2022 EAVS, how voting and
election administration have changed
since the last midterm election in 2018,
and how this information can be used
to prepare for the 2024 presidential
election.
Background: In 2002, Congress
charged the U.S. Election Assistance
Commission (EAC) with the task of
collecting information on the state of
American elections and making it
widely available to policymakers,
advocates, scholars, journalists, and the
general public. Since 2004, the EAC has
sponsored the biennially administered
Election Administration and Voting
Survey (EAVS), which surveys all 50
U.S. states, the District of Columbia,
American Samoa, Guam, Northern
Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the
U.S. Virgin Islands. It is the most
comprehensive source of state and local
jurisdiction-level data about election
administration in the United States.
Topics covered through EAVS data
collection include voter registration and
list maintenance, voting practices for
overseas citizens and members of the
armed forces serving away from home,
voter participation, election technology,
and other important issues related to
voting and election administration.

These data are vital in helping election
officials, policymakers, and other
election stakeholders identify trends,
anticipate and respond to changing
voter needs, invest resources to improve
election administration and the voter
experience, and better secure U.S.
elections infrastructure.
The 2022 EAVS Comprehensive
Report and previous EAVS reports are
available on the EAC’s studies and
report web page: https://www.eac.gov/
research-and-data/studies-and-reports.
Prior to 2014, this data was reported
in three different reports—the National
Voter Registration Act (NVRA) report,
the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens
Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) report,
and the Election Day Survey. Since
2008, this project has included a
separate survey, the Election
Administration Policy Survey (Policy
Survey), that gathers information about
state election laws, policies, and
practices. The Policy Survey was known
as the Statutory Overview survey prior
to 2018.
The full agenda will be posted in
advance on the EAC website: https://
www.eac.gov.
Status: This meeting will be open to
the public.
