Election Reform Briefing: The Provisional Voting Challenge

EXCERPT

Across the country, the goal of ensuring that qualified voters can cast their votes is achieved in vastly different ways � and sometimes not at all. Over half the states offer provisional voting, affidavit voting or fail-safe voting � different methods to ensure voters lost in the system are not denied the opportunity to cast a ballot. In many other states, voters can appeal to a judge if their name doesn�t appear on the list of registered voters. In several other states, voters not on the registration list have no recourse and are not permitted to vote.
