Vol. 10 Creating forms that help voters take action
This field guide provides research-based design principles for creating clear, usable forms that help voters accurately complete election-related paperwork and successfully take action.
Produced by the Center for Civic Design as part of the Field Guides to Ensuring Voter Intent series, the guide outlines practical techniques for improving the clarity and usability of election forms, including voter registration and absentee ballot documents.
It presents ten key recommendations—such as using clear titles, simple language, well-structured layouts, visible signature fields, and well-placed instructions—to reduce errors and make forms easier to complete.
