Book Description
"This compendium includes: A set of overview essays that address broad-ranging issues of elections data collection, usage and management ; A set of topic essays that deal with seven specific areas of elections data reporting, each including a set of detailed policy recommendations ; A 50-state assessment of data reporting, covering two areas: voter registration and history files, comparing the cost and comprehensiveness of these files; and state response rates to the federally mandates U.S. Election Assistance Commission Election Administration and Election Day Survey conducted in 2006. The compendium strives to advance the study of election information by assessing the scope of data reporting. The assessment highlights those states that do a particularly robust job of data collection and reporting; comments on the challenges facing other states in emulating those models; and examines the diversity of both data and data collection mechanisms among local governments within states. We hope that this compendium will provide helpful insight for policy debates in Congress; for the Election Assistance Commission as they think about their own data collection efforts; for state legislatures as they consider reform legislation; and for state and local election officials in their implementation and maintenance of our election system"--Title page verso

Pages : 352
Book Description
This major reference work provides complete returns for the gubernatorial elections by state and county for the period 1776 to 1860. This information is nowhere else available in one volume, and much of it has been pieced together through years of research of original sources of many kinds. One section contains the statewide returns by year. The next section, arranged alphabetically by state and then by year, provides the election returns, along with each candidate's name, party, number of votes and percentage of votes. Explanatory footnotes and source information accompany the returns. Researchers familiar with Mr. Dubin's massive work on Congressional elections (a Booklist "Editors' Choice") will understand the scope, detail, accuracy and uniqueness of this new work.
