We study the distribution of the number of points and of the zeroes of the zeta function in different p-rank strata of Artin-Schreier covers over Fq when q is fixed and the genus goes to infinity. The p-rank strata considered include the ordinary family, the whole family, and the family of covers with p-rank equal to p − 1. While the zeta zeroes always approach the standard Gaussian distribution, the number of points over Fq has a distribution that varies with the specific family.

Introduction. The main theme of this paper is that very innocuous looking one-parameter families of exponential sums over finite fields can have quite strong variation as the parameter moves. Even
