1 Administration and Electoral Studies: Theories, Frameworks and Anomalies

1. There was a later backlash against e- in Estonia. See Rikken (2011). 2. ‘Election administration’ is the term used in the US. This is often known as ‘electoral administration’ in many other English speaking countries such as the UK. The US term is used for the remainder of this book. 3. Often referred to as the ‘register of electors’ in some countries. 4. There is a rich literature on the determinants of whether an individual might cast their vote. It is not, by any means, suggested here that election administration is the only determinant. For an overview of the literature, see Geys (2006). 5. Also see Rawlings (1988). 6. See also Lewis and Putney (1912), Lynch (1831) and Ludington (1911). 7. For a discussion on some of the problems often identified in new institutionalism see James (2011c). 8. ‘On the importance of meta-theory and organising perspectives see: Marsh 2012’. 9. As far as the author is aware, this book is the first to chart the changes made in . There are some accounts of limited periods of change in the UK and the US. 10. This continuum is also produced in James (2010a). 11. For an application of this approach to reform see Lundell (2009).

2 Election Administration – a Tool for Political Statecraft?

1. in 2000 and in 2004. 2. Key examples of the blogs include Updates (http://electionupdates. caltech.edu/) by Michael Alvarez, Paul Gronke, Thad Hall and Robert Krimmer; Blog (http://electionlawblog.org/) by Rick Hasen; Election Law @ Moritz (http://moritzlaw.osu.edu/blogs/tokaji/) by Dan Tokaji. 3. Originally called democracy by Downs, but re- conceptualised as ‘citizen duty’ by Riker and Ordeshook (1968). 4. This review and continuum is documented in James (2010a). 5. Ironically, in some countries an increase in names on the voter register could cause ‘official turnout’ to decrease if this is calculated by dividing the number of valid votes by the number on the electoral register (as is the case in the UK). An increase in non- voting registrants will cause ‘official’ turnout to fall, without any decline in participation. 6. Cited from Highton (2004: 508–9).

7. Many studies calculate the estimated effect of a particular form of election administration on the probability of voting. Probabilities are presented as percentage points rather than decimals in this chapter. 8. Also see Nimmo and McCleskey (1969). 9. Also see Fenster (1994), Fitzgerald (2001), Ansolabehere and Konisky (2004). 10. Often also known as ‘no- excuse ’ or ‘universal absentee voting’ in the US. 11. See Qvortrup (2005b) for further comparative historical background on its use. 12. Also see Hamilton (1988) and Berkinsky et al. (2001). 13. However, also see Henry (2003). 14. In other research, Stein and Garcia Monet (1997) use aggregate data from early and election day balloting in Texas counties for the 1992 Presidential election. was found to be high among new voter registrants, the wealthier and Hispanic voters. They suggest that a high number of voting sites at non- traditional locations has a positive effect on turnout. They also note how the Democratic Party were effective at registering and mobilising early voters for the Clinton camp. 15. For other studies see Jackman and Miller (1995), Katz (1997), Franklin (1999) and Hirczy (1994). 16. In the majority of states votes are cast via the manual marking of paper (82.4%), in person or at a specified polling station (79%), voting cannot take place in advance of an election (56.8%), it is compulsory to be on the electoral register (60%), the register is continuously updated (39%), registration requires visiting a registration office in person (57%) and don’t conduct door to door enquiries (77%). Information from IDEA (2010). 17. Rosenstone and Wolfinger argued that since voting is a discrete and qualitative choice it is best predicted through probit/logit and related modelling rather than OLS regression (Rosenstone and Wolfinger, 1978: 44–5). Most of the research described above used this method. The second line of Tables 1 and 2 therefore defines 9 ordinal categories by the predicted change in the probability of voting for each procedure. Of course, with so many different data- sources being used, and many other research methods being deployed, all research findings cannot be readily converted into one precise measurement. Placing them onto the continuum therefore necessarily involves an interpretation by the author of the research findings on each procedure. This interpretation is provided in the discussion of the research on each procedure provided so far. 18. For a discussion of these criticisms see Shamos (2004), Alvarez and Hall (2008a). 19. For example, see Hasen (2000), Riordan (1994), Rose- Ackerman (1999), Lehoucq and Molina (2002) and Alvarez et al. (2008b: 7). 20. We should also note that there is a literature which suggests that design can affect electoral choice, especially in low- information elections. This suggests that the appearance of the candidate and the logo can influ- ence the voter (Katz et al., 2009), but not necessarily in a partisan party politics way. Instead, the literature focuses on whether higher turnout will bring a different winner. 21. Meanwhile, Michael Avery suggested that ‘Nonvoters are overwhelmingly likely to vote Democratic. … If turnout were substantially increased, the 236 Notes

Democrats would likely win overwhelming victories in nearly all elections’ (Avery, 1989: 117). According to Gerald Pomper (1989), ‘Nonvoting is most common among groups more loyal to the Democrats than the Republicans.’ 22. The 2000 Presidential election, of course, proved otherwise. 23. Also see Berinsky et al. (2006), Brains (1999), Nagle (1996). 24. There is also a literature on the effects of expanding the franchise. For example, see Aidt et al. (2006).

3 The Statecraft Approach: Bringing Political Elites Back in

1. For a discussion on how the Statecraft approach transcends work on networks and the new institutionalism, see James (2011c). 2. For a comparative perspective on the debate see Poguntke and Webb (2005). 3. The obvious exceptions in this context are the more recently created Scottish Parliament and Welsh Assembly. 4. See Buller and James (forthcoming) on how these concepts can be operation- alised empirically. 5. This is defined as ‘control of the national economy, the general provision of social welfare security from external threats and internal law and order’. All else is ‘“embellishment and detail”, low politics’ (Bulpitt, [1983]2008: 42). 6. Also see Bradbury (Bradbury, forthcoming) for a more recent application and development of Bulpitt’s idea on the territorial politics. 7. These are heuristic terms which have become widely known in analyses of electoral reform. See, for example, Renwick (2010).

4 ‘Stopping the Vote’: Election Administration in the USA

1. Exceptions included Rhode Island where those born outside of the US were required to own property, and in New York where African- Americans needed to meet a property test in order to vote (Seper and Lambro, 2004: 8). 2. The best it could achieve was to include an exemption from paying the poll tax in the Solidering Act, passed in 1942 to allow members of the armed forces to vote via . 3. It was disclosed in the release of a Democratic Party campaign manual that the Democrats, during the 2004 Presidential election, were instructed to ‘play up cases of voter intimidation’. According to one news source: ‘If no signs of intimidation have emerged yet, launch a pre- emptive strike’, the manual said. The manual, dated November 2004, also said that Democrats should rely on party officials, minority organisations and civil rights leaders to denounce Republican tactics to discourage people from voting. It also said Democratic Party officials should assist in placing stories in the press by providing ‘talking points’ (Taylor, 2007). Notes 237

5 ‘Modernising’ Elections? Election Administration in the

1. An 1788 Act established electoral registration, but it was repealed within a year (Seymour, 1915 [1970]: 106–7). 2. Other legislation was passed with the same aim such as the of 1832, the Corrupt Practices and Prevention Act 1854, the Parliamentary Elections Act of 1868, the Representation of the People Act, and the Corrupt and Illegal Practices Act 1883. 3. Authors calculation based on the number of postal ballots reported in the Times (1918) and the electorate size (21,392,322) reported in Rallings and Thrasher (2007: 88). 4. was also considered in the discussions of the committee but no recommendation was considered in its final report (Blackburn, 1995: 79), p. 110. 5. Blackburn notes that ‘In 1988 the Home Office provided £569,000 for its entire domestic electoral registration publicity and advertising campaign for that year. In contrast, it might be noted that it supplied £750,000 for the one- off campaign to publicise the new voting rights of the relatively far smaller number of overseas voters’ (2003a), p. 87. 6. The bill also proposed extending the franchise to a number of previously excluded groups such as the homeless. 7. For a full review of the impact of the changes on participation, see James, 2011a. 8. Multi- channel pilots are elections in which citizens can vote through a variety of mechanisms. The effects of multi- channel elections on turnout are discussed separately below. 9. A report by the Electoral Commission (2003a: 15) was unable to trace any statistical information on the actual numbers of cases of fraud. However, their research suggested that there was broad perception of fraud. According to Unionists this was a ‘well organized nationalist activity such as activities as fraudulently securing postal votes’. According to members of the nationalist community it had occurred on both sides of the community in the past, but was ‘less prevalent today’.

6 ‘Our silly aul’ pencils’: Election Administration in the

1. A spoof diary of Bertie Ahern’s time in office opened with the following reflec- tion in the introduction:

‘Regrets? I’ve had a few. My biggest single regret, lookin back, was dat I didn’t manage to bring in e-votin and get rid of de stupid oul pencils. I hate pencils. We’re de laughlin stock of the world wit dem. Sometimes I lie awake at night listening to de world laughin at us and sayin: “Ha, Ha! Look at the Irish. Still using pencils!”’. (Ahern, 2008: 7) 238 Notes

2. Although there is, of course, a literature on whether the electoral system does create the party system as Durgerver suggests, or whether the causal process is the other way around. 3. A newspaper search certainly revealed far fewer cases of public criticism or accusations of fraud. 4. ‘In 2010 it was announced that the machines would be disposed of.’
