RE: Animation with Voter Card entry



Sorry Greg.  I just wanted to get your reaction on a Friday afternoon.  I didn’t mean to be too abrupt, but the it is not likely that this will make it to the top of the list in light of some of the new features in the R6.

 

Have a good weekend.

The R6 unit has a locking card reader that will inhibit the voter from removing the card.  The card reader in the new unit takes the card in far enough so that the voter can not grab it in order to remove it.

 

Bottom line is there will be no animation.  RCR denied.

GEMS-1-17-11  AVTS-3-13-9

 

Request or suggest that some type of animation be provided when voter card is inserted into Ballot station while system is loading or reading smart card. 

 

At a demonstration the other day, a number of election people inserted the smart card and immediately removed it or tried to, as though they were swiping a credit card at the gas pumps. 

 

The window that indicates the card is being read could have some animation for voters to be amused by while their ballot is being prepared.  Maybe something after casting their ballot as well.
