Second day of Early Voting:
In calling around to the remote sites this AM. The first
two I called have the same problem. In turning on the machines that were
voted, they come up to the "hand" screen fine. Each site has one unit that
was NOT voted yesterday, but printed zero report yesterday. Today, when
they turn on the units with NO votes, they get the "SECONDARY MEDIA DOES NOT
MATCH PRIMARY MEDIA, OK TO OVERWRITE?" After calling Ken, I had them go
ahead and OVERWRITE, and the unit came back to the PRINT ZERO screen. We
said DONE and it went to HAND screen. I'll try to have someone vote on
each today. In Oakland, Berkeley, and Livermore where all machines were
voted, this problem did not occur.
Coincidence? Pattern? Bug?
