In both Florida and
Georgia, S.of S. and legislative task force discussions ( which can lead to and
occasionally precedes election code) has lit upon the possibility of a receipt for each voter using the touch
screen. The spectrum is wide. From a simple “My vote was cast” to a
reproduction of the ballot have been entertained as possible receipts. I not sure this is reason
enough to set off down that path – but it certainly warrants
consideration. A big obstacle to
TS voting gaining wide spread acceptance is also at the hear of it’s FFB. It’s
paperless trail. While we
understand that the ballot can be reproduced – that doesn’t necessarily hold
water with the public, SOE’s, or legislators. Reviewing our position in
this area, as it relates to both legislation and competitors(s) (Sequoia has this feature) may serve us well as we position for ever
changing and dynamic markets. And then again – if we come up with something
superlative – why not. From the swamps of

As for a summary screen,
I don't think there has been a formal RCR as of yet. I don't really
understand the request myself: voters are welcome to review their ballot,
so I don't see the functionality. If you want to submit it, please
include whether this is required by law, and some motivation for the
request. On the technical side, there is the question of where to get the
race titles to put on the summary screen, and what to do when all races do not
fit on one screen. We'll need suggestions in the RCR for those issues. Ken |
