Synopsis

The Help America Vote Act of 2002 was passed to address the growing concerns about states' electoral systems in the wake of the 2000 presidential election. The book traces the development of the law from the confusion of election night 2000 to its passage in Congress and signing by President George W. Bush. In simple, clear language, the author outlines the competing approaches of Democrats and Republicans, showing the congressional tussle between the two parties over the legislation, and provides an analysis of the law in practice.
