E-VOTING AND THE 2004 U.S. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION:
TOP 25 PLACES TO WATCH

Compiled by Kim Alexander, President
California Voter Foundation

 

Electronic voting systems will be used in an estimated 25-29 percent of the nation on November 2. Overall 29 states will use some electronic voting systems, and there are hundreds of jurisdictions across the nation using e-voting.

To make it easier for the public and the media to track electronic voting in this presidential election, CVF has compiled a list of the 25 most populous places in the country using e-voting. This list was compiled using data from state election web sites, the Census Bureau, Election Data Services' map, and the National Association of Counties' web site (www.naco.org).

The list identifies the city and/or Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), followed by the name of the vendor, the type of e-voting machine, and the county in which the city is located. An asterisk appears beside those cities located in states identified as presidential election battleground states. Cities and MSAs are generally shown in descending order, starting with the most populous.

Featuring the following states:

California, Colorado, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, Maryland, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia.
