NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Delaware State Election Commissioner, FRANK B. CALIO, hereby gives notice that a Public Hearing will be held on the date and time listed below in order to receive public comment on Delaware’s revised State Plan for the Help America Vote Act (HAVA).

Federal Legislation signed by President Bush (Help America Vote Act of 2002) requires all states to complete a state plan in which each state presents a plan to meet at least the minimum standards for state election systems. Delaware has amended that original plan at the request of the Election Assistance Commission to include our plan for expenditures of Title II Requirements funding.
A hearing will be held to receive comments on the amended state plan at the location below.
