Description

Reviews: (1) the constitutional framework for the admin. of elections, focusing on congress’ authority to regulate congressional, pres., and state and local elections; and (2) major fed. statutes enacted in the area of election admin. In summary, the constitutional framework for elections contemplates both state and fed. roles. States are responsible for the admin. of both their own elections and fed. elections. States regulate various phases of the elections process and in turn incur the costs associated with these activities. However, Congress has authority to legislate in the admin. of elections, depending upon the type of election. With regard to fed. elections, Congress has constitutional authority over both congressional and presidential elections.
