SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose: In accordance with the Government in the Sunshine Act
(Sunshine Act), Public Law 94-409, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552b), the U.S.
Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will conduct an open meeting to
review significant 2022 Election Administration and Voting Survey
(EAVS) findings, and how the EAVS can be utilized by election
officials, academics, and other stakeholders to improve elections.
Agenda: The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) will host
panels featuring election administrators, EAC staff, and election
subject matter experts. They will discuss the findings of the 2022
EAVS, how voting and election administration have changed since the
last midterm election in 2018, and how this information can be used to
prepare for the 2024 presidential election.
Background: In 2002, Congress charged the U.S. Election Assistance
Commission (EAC) with the task of collecting information on the state
of American elections and making it widely available to policymakers,
advocates, scholars, journalists, and the general public. Since 2004,
the EAC has sponsored the biennially administered Election
Administration and Voting Survey (EAVS), which surveys all 50 U.S.
states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, Northern
Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. It is the
most comprehensive source of state and local jurisdiction-level data
about election administration in the United States.
Topics covered through EAVS data collection include voter
registration and list maintenance, voting practices for overseas
citizens and members of the armed forces serving away from home, voter
participation, election technology, and other important issues related
to voting and election administration. These data are vital in helping
election officials, policymakers, and other election stakeholders
identify trends, anticipate and respond to changing voter needs, invest
resources to improve election administration and the voter experience,
and better secure U.S. elections infrastructure.
The 2022 EAVS Comprehensive Report and previous EAVS reports are
available on the EAC's studies and report web page: <a href="https://www.eac.gov/research-and-data/studies-and-reports">https://www.eac.gov/research-and-data/studies-and-reports</a>.
Prior to 2014, this data was reported in three different reports--
the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) report, the Uniformed and
Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) report, and the Election
Day Survey. Since 2008, this project has included a separate survey,
the Election Administration Policy Survey (Policy Survey), that gathers
information about state election laws, policies, and practices. The
Policy Survey was known as the Statutory Overview survey prior to 2018.
The full agenda will be posted in advance on the EAC website:

Status: This meeting will be open to the public.

Senior Associate Counsel, U.S. Election Assistance Commission.
