Abstract:

In this report, the League of Women Voters offers a set of recommended operational and management practices for election officials as they work to build good voter registration systems. These recommendations were first outlined in an earlier League publication in the Helping America Vote series, Safeguarding the Vote, and remain instructive and timely today. Drawn from interviews with election officials and other experts conducted in the spring of 2004, this report outlines a set of practices that can provide useful guidance in developing a more secure foundation for a key component of election administration and voter registration databases.
