This book focuses on voting practices, election reform and local election officials who are critical to the administration of federal elections and the implementation of the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA). Topics discussed include how local election officials view election reform; the Help America Vote Act of 2002 and elections reform issues; the history and implementation of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993; and the constitutional authority and limitations relevant to Congress standardising the administration of voter registration, balloting, tabulating and reporting election results.
