“Who can believe today that the idea of referencing an ‘electoral encyclopedia’ — much less a fully electronic one — didn’t get consideration as a required administrative tool until the late 20th Century?” - In memoriam of Harry Neufeld (1952-2021), first ACE coordinator whose expertise, dedication and contribution made the Ace Project possible

“The ACE project has provided rich information to election practitioners in general, election management bodies in particular and the broader public. It has become ‘go to’ website when searching for and requiring information on electoral practices” – IIona Tip, Operations Director at EISA (Electoral institute for Sustainable Democracy in Africa)

“The ACE Project from the very start has been immensely valuable not just as a vital asset for practitioners in the electoral field, but as an exemplar of what can be achieved when committed practitioners are given the chance to work together on a global scale” – Michael Malay, former Director of Research and International Services at the AEC (Australian Electoral Commission)
