Wednesday, September 07, 2005 EAC Requests Proposals for Election Law Clearinghouse The Election Assistance Commission has issued a request for proposals to research and build a "legal resources clearinghouse" covering election administration. This is being done pursuant to section 202 of the Help America Vote Act, which requires the EAC to serve as a national clearinghouse for information on the conduct of federal elections. The EAC's goal is to provide a central respository for information regarding the election laws of the states and territories. That includes constitutional, statutory, and regulatory provisions, as well as decisional law, on both HAVA and the National Voter Registration Act (aka, "Motor Voter"). The goal is to have all of this information available via the web --a one-stop shopping for election administration laws. It's a major undertaking, and obviously an important one. Proposals are due on September 13, 2005. |
