Overview Electoral processes are regulated by laws and regulations. These processes lend themselves to the development of forms.
Electoral managers love forms.
Every step of the process seems to require the completion of a form and if possible two or three forms have been prepared even to record the simplest of administrative tasks. The more forms to fill in the greater the risk of mistakes and the greater the complexity of the training process. Security and transparency are paramount, but these principles do not preclude the design of forms that are easy to understand, that are complete and that include several parts of the process on the same form. Whenever a record needs to be kept or an activity recorded, it is efficient to provide a prescribed form for this purpose. The electoral laws and regulations often prescribe the design and content of specific forms, of which ballots are the best example.
