Is America
Ready to Vote?: Election Readiness Briefing Paper. Office of Civil Rights
Evaluation, U.S.
Commission
on Civil Rights, April 2004. The Commission’s recommendations highlight the problems that are most urgently in need of attention with only nine months to go before the 2004 presidential election. The Commission suggests the federal government could consider adopting an emergency posture and use all available means to ensure that every eligible citizen can vote and have his or her vote counted. The 2004 elections will test again the nation’s resolve to ensure voting rights. |
