Voting

The American Community Survey (ACS) is a large national survey that uses continuous measurement methods to produce detailed demographic, social, economic, and housing data each year.  It was designed to provide timely data for both large and small geographic areas.

By 1965 concerted efforts to break the grip of state disfranchisement had been under way for some time, but had achieved only modest success overall and in some areas had proved almost entirely ineffectual. The murder of voting-rights activists in Philadelphia and Mississippi, gained national attention, along with numerous other acts of violence and terrorism.

A common question often repeated is why Orange County must provide translated election materials and bi-lingual support in Spanish, Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese.  Federal law requires that we provide support for those registered voters who request this assistance.  This means that we must be prepared by offering these materials even if a voter does not request assistance in a covered polling place.

This Election Voting Is Different!
