ELECTION ASSISTANCE COMMISSION


Sunshine Act; Notice of Virtual Public Forum for EAC Standards 
Board

Date & Time: Monday, May 3, 2010, 9 a.m. EDT through Friday, May 14, 
2010, 9 p.m. EDT.

Place: EAC Standards Board Virtual Meeting Room at http://www.eac.gov.
    Once at the main page of EAC's Web site, viewers should click the 
link to the Standards Board Virtual Meeting Room. The virtual meeting 
room will open on Monday, May 3, 2010, at 9 a.m. EDT and will close on 
Friday, May 14, 2010, at 9 p.m. EDT. The site will be available 24 
hours per day during that 12-day period.

Purpose: The EAC Standards Board will review and provide comment on a 
draft version of the EAC Research Department's Recounts and Contests 
study. The draft version contains information about the laws and 
procedures each States uses to govern recounts, contests, and standards 
for what constitutes a valid vote. The study includes best practices 
that States use with respect to recounts and contests. The EAC 
Standards Board Virtual Meeting Room was established to enable the 
Standards Board to conduct business in an efficient manner in a public 
forum, including being able to review and discuss draft documents, when 
it is not feasible for an in-person board meeting. The Standards Board 
will not take any votes or propose any resolutions during the 12-day 
forum of May 3-May 14, 2010. Members will post comments about the draft 
version of the Recounts and Contests study.
    This activity is open to the public. The public may view the 
proceedings of this special forum by visiting the EAC standards board 
virtual meeting room at http://www.eac.gov at any time between Monday, 
May 3, 2010, 9 a.m. EDT and Friday, May 14, 2010, 9 p.m. EDT. The 
public also may view recounts and contests, which will be posted on 
EAC's Web site beginning April 26, 2010. The public may file written 
statements to the EAC standards board at [email protected] and by 
copying Sharmili Edwards at [email protected]. Data on EAC's Web site is 
accessible to visitors with disabilities and meets the requirements of 
Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.
