Election Assistance Commission October 16, 2009 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) seeks public comment on the Proposed Election Administration and Voting Survey Data policy. The policy provides additional direction to election officials responsible for completing EAC's Election Administration and Voting Survey information about the processes and procedures that will guide their submission, review, and correction of the survey data. 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 Uniformed 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.
