The Help America Vote Act (“HAVA”) was signed into law on October 29, 2002 by President George W. Bush. HAVA was enacted in direct response to the controversies related to the 2000 elections. The Election Assistance Commission was created by HAVA, as well as requirements for provisional ballots, the replacement of punch card ballots, and state wide voter registration databases.
