National Association of Secretaries of State: Election Information

"Remember Florida's "hanging chads" during the election of 2000? How about the "vote early and often" policy of certain Chicago politicians in the early part of the 20th century? Where do you go for concise information on election laws and regulations enacted to deal with these and other infamous events?"

"Their site contains tables with summaries of each U.S. state's rules and regulations (plus citations to statutes or regulations whenever available) on:"

+ Absentee Ballot Deadlines
+ Absentee Voting (included the list of 29 excuses allowed)
+ Automatic Recounts
+ Central Statewide Voter Registration Systems
+ Counting Absentee Ballots
+ Definition of a Valid Vote on Optical Scan Systems
+ Definition of a Valid Vote on Punch Card Systems
+ Early Voting
+ Polling Place Accessibility and Voter Assistance
+ Post Election Recount/Contest Timetable
+ Post Election Certification Timetable
+ Provisional Ballots
+ Provisions re: Election Day Workers
+ Recount Provisions (two tables' worth of info)
+ States with Same-Day Voter Registration
+ Student Election Day Workers
+ Voter Registration Deadlines
The site also lets you use a pull-down list to go directly to a particular state's Department of State Web site. (Alas, some of the links are broken and you may have to prowl a bit to find what you want.)
