What Kind of Analytic Reports Do Election Boards Generate?
Election boards generate a variety of analytic reports to monitor and evaluate various aspects of the electoral process, ensure transparency, and uphold the integrity of elections. These reports provide valuable insights into voter registration, turnout, candidate performance, election administration, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Here are some common types of analytic reports generated by election boards:
-
Voter Registration Reports: These reports analyze voter registration data to track the number of registered voters, voter demographics (e.g., age, gender, ethnicity), registration trends over time, and geographic distribution of registered voters within electoral districts.
-
Voter Turnout Reports: Voter turnout reports assess voter participation in elections by analyzing turnout rates, absentee and early voting statistics, polling place turnout, and comparisons with historical turnout data. These reports help election officials gauge the effectiveness of voter outreach efforts and identify barriers to voter participation.
-
Precinct Performance Reports: Precinct performance reports evaluate the operational efficiency and effectiveness of individual polling places by analyzing wait times, ballot issuance rates, voter check-in times, equipment performance, and incidents of irregularities or disruptions.
-
Candidate Performance Reports: Candidate performance reports provide insights into the electoral performance of candidates running for public office. They analyze vote counts, vote shares, margin of victory, candidate support by demographic groups, and comparisons with previous election results.
-
Election Administration Reports: These reports assess the overall administration of elections, including the deployment of election staff, training programs for poll workers, allocation of resources (e.g., voting machines, ballots), compliance with legal requirements (e.g., voter ID laws, accessibility standards), and adherence to election procedures.
-
Voting System Integrity Reports: Voting system integrity reports evaluate the security, reliability, and accuracy of electronic voting systems and ballot tabulation processes. They may include audits of voting machine software, testing of system vulnerabilities, and assessments of compliance with certification standards.
-
Election Observer Reports: Reports from independent election observers or monitoring organizations provide external assessments of the electoral process, including observations of voting procedures, voter interactions, adherence to election laws, and incidents of irregularities or fraud.
-
Post-Election Reviews and Audits: Post-election reviews and audits analyze election results, investigate complaints or allegations of irregularities, verify the accuracy of vote tabulation, and ensure compliance with auditing protocols. These reports may include recounts, audits of paper ballots, and investigations into disputed election outcomes.
-
Accessibility and Inclusivity Reports: Accessibility and inclusivity reports assess the accessibility of polling places and voting materials for voters with disabilities, language minorities, and other marginalized groups. They identify barriers to access and recommend measures to improve the voting experience for all voters.
-
Compliance Reports: Compliance reports document the election board's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, including reporting obligations, campaign finance regulations, data privacy laws, and ethics standards for election officials.

Machining Industry Dashboard Solution - The need at Brenk Brothers for a user-friendly BI tool began with reports that were produced monthly for meetings with executive management.

The problem with this process was that if anything was not quite right with the report, or if a new business question arose, they had to go all the way back to the drawing board, modifying the SQL query and restarting the process. Sometimes this would have to be repeated several times for a single report...
