Address of Record Validation
Over 40 million people move each year, about 14% of the total population in the United States. For election commissions, this can create a significant cost center and serious barrier to ensuring every vote counts. e-Validate is a remarkably simple cloud-based address system that advances your current workflow by verifying voters’ addresses before ballots are mailed. Impact “turnout” by proactively mailing post cards to validated addresses while adhering to NCOA requirements. e-Validate also supports sustainable Green Initiatives and saves valuable funds across your committee!
