U.S. ELECTION ASSISTANCE COMMISSION

2014 Election Administration & Voting Survey

The ongoing process of improving America’s election systems relies in part on having accurate data about the way 

Americans cast their ballots. In 2002, Congress chartered the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) to collect 

information on the state of American elections and make it widely available to policy makers, advocates, scholars, 

journalists and the general public. Since 2004, the Commission has sponsored a biennial survey as its primary tool for 

fulfilling that mission. We are pleased to present the 2014 Election Administration and Voting Survey, and we ask for 

your help in making it the most complete and accurate survey in its history. 

The questions below ask for information about ballots cast, voter registration, overseas and military voting, Election Day 

activities, voting technology, and other important issues. The section concerning the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens 

Voting Act (UOCAVA) serves as the EAC’s standardized format for State reporting of UOCAVA voting information as 

required by 42 U.S.C. §1973ff-1. States that complete and timely submit this section to the EAC will fulfill their UOCAVA 

reporting requirement under 42 U.S.C. §1973ff-1(c). Additionally, EAC is mandated by the National Voter Registration Act 

(NVRA) to collection information from states concerning the impact of that statute on the administration of Federal 

elections. With this information, EAC is required to make a report to Congress and provide recommendations for the 

improvement of Federal and State procedures, forms, and other NVRA matters. States that timely respond to all 

questions in this survey concerning voter registration related matters will meet their NVRA reporting requirements under 

42 U.S.C. § 1973gg-7 and EAC regulations.

The EAC recognizes the burden that asking for these data places on State and local election officials, and we have 

worked to minimize that burden as much as possible. 

In advance, we thank you for your cooperation and look forward to answering any questions you might have.

Instructions for Completing the 2014 Election Administration & Voting Survey

1. This survey collects information on election administration issues in local election offices (typically counties or townships) that 

are responsible for the administration of the November 2014 general election. As such, all data should be reported at the level of 

the local jurisdiction. However, the State or Territorial level election office may fill out any or all of the information on behalf of the 

local election offices under its jurisdiction. 

2. Do not leave items blank - always provide an answer to the question asked using the “Data not available” or “Other” categories

discussed below, if needed.

3. Use the “Data not available” box if the question asks for details that are not required by your State law or the question asks for 

information that is not currently collected.

4. You may find it helpful to read an entire section before answering any of the questions in that section.

5. Please attempt to record data according to the categories as they are defined in the question. If your jurisdiction uses a different 

data classification scheme (for instance, collects data in such a way that combines two or more categories listed in a question), 

you can use the space provided for “Other” to provide numbers and details on these categories. Use as many “Other” categories 

as you need to adequately report the relevant statistics for your jurisdiction. If you enter information into the “Other” field, please 

use the comments field to provide an explanation for the answer.

In the example below, the jurisdiction does not collect separate statistics on the number of duplicate and rejected registration 

forms, but instead has only one number that represents the total number of registration forms that are either duplicated or 

rejected. 

EXAMPLE:

A5. In order to evaluate the workflow of your office over the last election cycle, enter the total number of registration forms 

your jurisdiction received from all sources during the period from the close of registration for the November 2012

general election until the close of registration for the November 2014 general election. Include here any Election Day or 

Same Day registrations, if applicable. Also include any special categories of voters who may have extended deadlines, such as 

returning military personnel, if applicable. 

A5a. Total.......................................................................................... 5000 .................. Data not available

Next, divide the total number of registration application forms received (as entered in A5a) into the following categories. The 

amounts should sum to the total provided in A4a.

other NVRA matters. States that timely respond to all questions in this survey concerning voter registration related 

matters will meet their NVRA reporting requirements under 42 U.S.C. § 1973gg-7 and EAC regulations.

F8. The U.S. Election Assistance Commission welcomes any general comments the jurisdiction may wish to share regarding its Election Day experiences 

(e.g., problems with voting system anomalies*, recounts, staffing, challenges to eligibility, long lines, etc.), or noteworthy success in administering the 

November 2014 general election. Please feel free to attach additional pages as necessary.

* An anomaly is defined as an irregular or inconsistent action or response from the voting system or system component resulting in some disruption to the election 

process. Incidents resulting from administrator error or procedural deficiencies are not considered anomalies for purposes of this survey question (EAC Voting Systems 

Testing and Certification Program Manual).

END OF SURVEY

THANK YOU FOR RESPONDING TO THIS SURVEY

* This information collection is required for the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) to meet its statutory requirements under the Help America Vote Act 

(HAVA) of 2002 (42 U.S.C. 15301), the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) (42 U.S.C. 1973gg-1 et seq.), and the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee 

Voters Act (UOCAVA) (42 U.S.C. 1973ff-1). Respondent’s obligation to reply to this information collection is mandatory as required under NVRA (42 U.S.C. 1973gg-1 

et seq.) and UOCAVA (42 U.S.C. 1973ff-1); respondents include the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Territories. This information will be made publicly 

available on the EAC Web site (http://www.eac.gov). According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 

required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. The valid OMB control number
