Ballot

[Dave Wrenne]

Dear all

Hope this finds you well.

My name is David Wrenne and I posted on this site regarding the gathering of
ballot papers for my MA project.
At this point, I have decided to focus specifically on the ballots papers
within the European Union and although I have gathered some from specific
countries, I am finding it difficult to gather a collection for all 27
countries.

If anyone has some examples of ballots, especially general election papers
from any of the EU countries or has links to specific resources or even
email addresses of where I might possibly gather some examples, all would be
so helpful!

Thanks for taking the time to read this mail and look forward to hearing
from you!

Sounds very interesting. You probably know of this, but in case you
don't: http://www.aiga.org/content.cfm/design-for-democracy.

And this, about the infamous 2007 Scottish Parliament ballot paper: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_depth/629/629/6511445.stm

David,

Though you are not interested in Brazilian examples these might be
interesting to know.
The links are in portuguese but you can use Google translator for a rough
English version.

Currently, Brazilians use an eletronic system and paper-based ballot is very
rare
