Elections in the United StatesIn the politics of the United States, elections are held for government officials at the federal, state, and local levels. At the federal level, the nation's head of state, the president, is elected indirectly by the people of each state, through an Electoral College. Today, these electors almost always vote with the popular vote of their state. All members of the federal legislature, the Congress, are directly elected by the people of each state. There are many elected offices at state level, each state having at least an elective governor and legislature.
Voter-verified paper audit trailVoter verifiable paper audit trail (VVPAT) or verified paper record (VPR) is a method of providing feedback to voters using a ballotless voting system. A VVPAT is intended as an independent verification system for voting machines designed to allow voters to verify that their vote was cast correctly, to detect possible election fraud or malfunction, and to provide a means to audit the stored electronic results. It contains the name of the candidate (for whom vote has been cast) and symbol of the party/individual candidate.
Vote à bulletin secretLe vote à bulletin secret est une méthode de vote dans laquelle le choix du votant à une élection ou à un référendum est anonyme, tant au moment du vote, qu'après celui-ci. L'enjeu principal est d'assurer que l'électeur exprime un choix profond en empêchant toute tentative d'influence que ce soit par intimidation ou subornation. Mais cette méthode de vote à bulletin secret rompt la traçabilité du bulletin de vote jusqu'au votant, rendant ainsi difficile la vérification des votes en cas de litige.
Bureau de voteUn bureau de vote est une salle où l'on procède à un vote. NOTOC Procédures électorales françaises En France, les bureaux de vote sont le plus souvent aménagés à l'intérieur des hôtels de ville, des mairies de quartier et des écoles ou tout bâtiment approprié, désigné par arrêté préfectoral sur proposition du maire, responsable de l'organisation des élections dans la commune. Depuis 2005, le bureau de vote doit être accessible aux personnes handicapées.

E-participationElectronic participation (e-participation) refers to the use of ICT in facilitating citizen participation in government-related processes, encompassing areas such as administration, service delivery, decision-making, and policy-making. As such, e-participation shares close ties with e-government and e-governance participation. The term's emergence aligns with the digitization of citizen interests and interactions with political service providers, primarily due to the proliferation of e-government.
Trip generationTrip generation is the first step in the conventional four-step transportation forecasting process used for forecasting travel demands. It predicts the number of trips originating in or destined for a particular traffic analysis zone (TAZ). Trip generation analysis focuses on residences and residential trip generation is thought of as a function of the social and economic attributes of households. At the level of the traffic analysis zone, residential land uses "produce" or generate trips.
E-governanceElectronic governance or e-governance is the application of information technology for delivering government services, exchange of information, communication transactions, integration of various stand-alone systems between government to citizen (G2C), government-to-business (G2B), government-to-government (G2G), government-to-employees (G2E) as well as back-office processes and interactions within the entire governance framework. Through e-governance, government services are made available to citizens through IT.
Administration électroniqueL’administration électronique ou administration en ligne ou encore dématérialisation des services publics désigne l'utilisation des technologies de l'information et de la communication (TIC) par les administrations publiques visant à rendre les services publics plus accessibles à leurs usagers et à améliorer leur fonctionnement interne. L'administration électronique peut se développer dans tout type d'administration ou de service public, en contact avec le public (front-office) ou non (back-office).
Trip distributionTrip distribution (or destination choice or zonal interchange analysis) is the second component (after trip generation, but before mode choice and route assignment) in the traditional four-step transportation forecasting model. This step matches tripmakers’ origins and destinations to develop a “trip table”, a matrix that displays the number of trips going from each origin to each destination. Historically, this component has been the least developed component of the transportation planning model.
