Book excerpt: The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) protects the rights of military personnel, their dependents, and overseas citizens to vote by absentee ballot. The Department of Defense (DOD) and others have reported that absentee voting, which relies primarily on mail, can be slow and may, in certain circumstances, serve to disenfranchise these voters. In 2004, Congress required DOD to develop an Internet-based absentee voting demonstration project and required the Election Assistance Commission-which reviews election procedures-to develop guidelines for DOD's project. In 2006, Congress required DOD to report, by May 15, 2007, on plans for expanding its use of electronic voting technologies and required GAO to assess efforts by (1) DOD to facilitate electronic absentee voting and (2) the Commission to develop Internet voting guidelines and DOD to develop an Internet-based demonstration project. GAO also assessed DOD's efforts to develop plans to expand its use of electronic voting technologies. GAO interviewed officials and reviewed and analyzed documents related to these efforts.

Book excerpt: The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee voting protects the rights of military personnel and overseas citizens to register and vote absentee in federal elections. In 2014, the most recently completed federal election, the Election Assistance Commission estimated that around 6%, or 8,500 of the 146,000 ballots submitted by voters covered under the act, were rejected. The Department of Defense's (DOD's) Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP) generally implements many of the act's provisions and provides absentee voting support. This report assesses the extent to which DOD has (1) identified challenges with its military and overseas voting assistance efforts and developed plans to address those challenges; and (2) implemented strategic planning practices to help ensure the long-term effectiveness of FVAP. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.

Book excerpt: Under the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA), citizens covered are permitted to register and vote absentee. The Sec. of Defense has the primary responsibility for federal UOCAVA functions, and the Dept. of Defense's (DoD) Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP) facilitates absentee voters' participation in federal elections. This report evaluates how FVAP: (1) addresses its mission and evaluates efforts to conduct it; (2) aligns budget priorities with strategic goals; and (3) implemented DoD¿s Inspector General recommend. made from 2001 through 2009. The report analyzed FVAP's performance measures, relevant DoD directives, FVAP's strategic plans, budgets, and past audit reports; and interviewed agency officials.
