Download or read book State Election Services in Oregon Classic Reprint written by Donald Gordon Balmer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Election Services in Oregon In addition to the basic services of election administration, some states provide voter information, such as sample ballots or the arguments for or against constitutional amendments and ballot issues. Oregon provides the most extensive such voter information services. That is accomplished by means of a voters' pamphlet, which is published before each primary, general or special election. The pamphlet provides information concern ing both-candidates and the measures on the ballot, and it is sent to each registered voter. Oregon also provides two other unique services. The Secretary of State publishes a summary report of campaign contributions and expenditures, which lists gross receipts and expenditures for each reporting candidate and committee and itemizes each contribution of $50 or more. Oregon also provides a tax credit to encourage political contributions. The present study describes the development of Oregon's Voters' Pamphlet since 1907, compares Oregon's pamphlet with similar but less extensive ones in other states, and discusses the cost to the state and the voter of the pamphlet. The summary report and tax credit are also described. This publication was made possible by a grant from the Ford Foundation to the Citizens' Research Foundation. Dr. Balmer is Dubach Professor of Political Science at Lewis and Clark College in Portland. The presentation and conclusions are the responsibility of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of members of the Board of Trustees of the Citizens' Research Foundation.

Download or read book The Federalist Papers written by Alexander Hamilton and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic Books Library presents this brand new edition of “The Federalist Papers”, a collection of separate essays and articles compiled in 1788 by Alexander Hamilton. Following the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776, the governing doctrines and policies of the States lacked cohesion. “The Federalist”, as it was previously known, was constructed by American statesman Alexander Hamilton, and was intended to catalyse the ratification of the United States Constitution. Hamilton recruited fellow statesmen James Madison Jr., and John Jay to write papers for the compendium, and the three are known as some of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Alexander Hamilton (c. 1755–1804) was an American lawyer, journalist and highly influential government official. He also served as a Senior Officer in the Army between 1799-1800 and founded the Federalist Party, the system that governed the nation’s finances. His contributions to the Constitution and leadership made a significant and lasting impact on the early development of the nation of the United States.
Download or read book Asking the Right Questions About Electronic Voting written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-04-02 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many election officials look to electronic voting systems as a means for improving their ability to more effectively conduct and administer elections. At the same time, many information technologists and activists have raised important concerns regarding the security of such systems. Policy makers are caught in the midst of a controversy with both political and technological overtones. The public debate about electronic voting is characterized by a great deal of emotion and rhetoric. Asking the Right Questions About Electronic Voting describes the important questions and issues that election officials, policy makers, and informed citizens should ask about the use of computers and information technology in the electoral processâ€"focusing the debate on technical and policy issues that need resolving. The report finds that while electronic voting systems have improved, federal and state governments have not made the commitment necessary for e-voting to be widely used in future elections. More funding, research, and public education are required if e-voting is to become viable.
