Reply #5: The details are interesting reading. We need national standards for vote reporting [View All]

that includes a requirement for usable formatting. I paid big bucks for the massive NM 2008 Access database, and it is quite useless unless you want to work for weeks to convert it to a proper document for analysis.

Some jurisdictions report the vote totals without mention of the number of voters, or list the number of voters as the number of Presidential votes counted. This skews any attempt to define undervotes. A good standard would cure this stuff.
