US Election Assistance Commission Studies and ReportsPrior 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. In addition, for the 2018 administration of the EAVS, the EAC transitioned from the Statutory Overview, which asks states a series of open-ended questions about their election laws, definitions, and procedures, and now, administers the Policy Survey, a series of closed-ended questions that cover the same topics - allowing for cleaner data and that is more usable than the previous question type.
