The debate typically centers on policies that seek to affect the accessibility of voting. Election Day Registration (EDR) is one voting policy being discussed. Allowing voters to register on Election Day is a policy currently used in eleven states and the District of Columbia, and states with EDR rank highest in the nation’s voter turnout rates.

  • Minnesota's Elections — Transparent, Verifiable, and Accurate
    Minnesota’s Elections — Transparent, Verifiable, and Accurate. A Response to the Center of the American Experiment‘s Report: No Longer a National Model. Fifteen Recommendations for Fixing Minnesota Election Law and Practice. February 25, 2010 Kathy Bonnifield, Associate Director, Citizens for Election Integrity Minnesota Mike Dean, Executive Director, Common Cause Minnesota Mark Halvorson, Director, Citizens for Election Integrity Minnesota Transparent. Verifiable. Accurate. Page 0 www.ceimn.org www.commoncause.org/mn Introduction This document is the response of Citizens for Election Integrity Minnesota (CEIMN) and Common Cause Minnesota (CCMN), to the Center of the American Experiment (CAE) report: No Longer a National Model. Fifteen Recommendations for Fixing Minnesota Election Law and Practice.1 The report, written by Mr. Kent Kaiser, contains a large number of inaccuracies and unsubstantiated claims. As nonpartisan election integrity organizations, we feel a responsibility to Minnesota voters and election officials to provide a written response, based on data available to the public. CEIMN organized a state-wide nonpartisan observation of the 2008 U.S. Senate recount [with the help of CCMN and the League of Women Voters Minnesota (LWVMN)], the first of its kind in the country. This effort involved 77 trained and experienced volunteers who carefully documented their observations. CAE‘s findings and conclusions differ widely from those publicized in Eyes on the Vote Count: Non-partisan Observer Reports of Minnesota’s 2008 Post-Election Audit and Recount,2 a report based on volunteer observations by CEIMN, facts reported by the Office of the Secretary of State, and reports in the media. CAE choose not to include sources for input ―because we wanted this report to be not about the esteem or celebrity of its contributors but rather about the substance and merits of its recommendations.‖ But as we prepared our response to the CAE report, we choose another route — to cite our sources.

    This document is made available electronically by the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library as part of an ongoing digital archiving project. http://www.leg.state.mn.us/lrl/lrl.asp Vol. 2 No. 1 January 27, 1975 House Information Office/Official Newsletter All 134 members of the Minnesota House of Representatives were sworn into office January 7. For 52 members, it was the first official day in office as state representatives. Members-elect of the Minnesota House of Representatives assembled in the House Chambers January 7 for the opening day of the 69th session of the Legislature. At 12 noon, Secretary of State Joan Growe called the House to order and appointed Rep. Bernard Brinkman of Richmond as Clerk pro tem­ pore. A call of the roll by district was taken and all l 34 districts were represented. The Honorable Raymond Pavlak, judge in the First Judicial District, then administered the oath of office to the 134 members of the 1975-76 House of Representatives. The first business of the day was to officially choose a speaker for the House. Traditionally, each caucus nominates a person for the position of speaker. With the Democratic majority of 103 to 31 for the Independent­ Republican caucus, the DFL candidate was assured of the job. After several nominating speeches, including supportive speeches by the minority leadership, Rep. Martin Olav Sabo of Minneapolis, was elected Speaker of the House by a vote of 134 to 0. The unanimous elec­ Former state representative Raymond Pavlak, now tion is believed to be unprecedented in the state's history.
