Election Legislation Databases
NCSL provides two databases of state-level election reform legislation. Both databases use the same categories, so searching in either is easy.
The 2011-2012 database, powered by State Net, provides easy access to this year's election-related bills; bill status is automatically updated every two weeks.
The 2001-2010 database is still available, providing users with historical data.
