ABSTRACT

The Goals of Federal Election Reform

When they choose the president, the vice president, and members of Congress,

the American people should expect all levels of government to provide a democratic process that:

• Maintains an accurate list of citizens who are qualified to vote;
• Encourages every eligible voter to participate effectively;
• Uses equipment that reliably clarifies and registers the voter�s choices;
• Handles close elections in a foreseeable and fair way;
• Operates with equal effectiveness for every citizen and every community; and
• Reflects limited but responsible federal participation.
