Voting and Registration in the Election of 1996

The US Census Bureau, as part of its Current Population Survey, collects voting and registration data in congressional and presidential years. Recently, the Bureau has posted data from the 1996 elections online. Selected demographic and socioeconomic characteristics are presented in both text and Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format. Among the highlights of the report: 54 percent of the voting-age population voted in 1996, down from 61 percent in 1992; and only 66 percent of the voting-age population reported that they registered in 1996, the lowest registration rate since 1968. The site also contains information on the 1994 elections, some projection information, and several brief historical tables.
