Electoral College

The EAC’s White Paper discusses the Electoral College's historical roots, important elections that have shaped its functions, vulnerabilities in the system, and how it has continued to endure after 200 years.

Election Administration in Urban and Rural Areas

HAVA (b)(15) requires EAC to study "[m]atters particularly relevant to voting and administering elections in rural and urban areas." The purpose of this study is to determine the ways in which election officials conduct voter outreach, secure personnel, and handle any cost-related challenges associated with administering general elections in rural and urban jurisdictions.
