Abstract

We present an automated data collection technique called white boxes- or simply wb-technique, that is designed
—to analyze the voter behavior in polling stations, which includes the measurement of arrival and waiting times, the determination
of arrival frequency and multiple arrival;
—to assist the management of polling places to make decision regarding the distribution of resources, and to identify areas
for future improvement;
—to collect historical data to evaluate the impact of redistricting and gerrymandering on the quality of the voting experience;
—and to provide hard data to guide the political decision making process with respect to the choice of voting technologies.
