A new system for electronic polling. The system employs a plurality of voter check-in stations which display voter identity information and enable poll workers to verify voting eligibility. Each check-in station is connected to the internet by any available means. Periodically, the check-in station sends a block of information to a web site. The block of information includes a list of the registration numbers of all of the voters who have voted and the last time-stamp of information that it has updated onto the local database. The web site responds with a block of information containing a list of voters who have been reported as voting in other areas of the jurisdiction also a list of voters whose status has changed. The check-in station uses this information to update the local database with the voting status and eligibility status of the voters on its database. The voter check-in process runs only against the local database thereby eliminating the reliance on communications with the web site.
