Re: Error when trying to queue cross endorse Vote Centre

Queuing the 'New York Junior High School' AccuVote-OS vote center from the database initially submitted by Greg, using GEMS 1-18-9, results in the following error message:
 
 
Note that this vote center contains cross-endorsed candidates, which are not supposed to have any impact on the problem originally reported by Greg.  On the other hand, the same version of GEMS does not experience any difficulty generating the download file for a vote center containing one race with 12 endorsing voter groups, without cross-endorsement.

Its a very good question.
 
There is a lame 10 party limit on the AccuVote that has existed for as many years.  Its a hard coded thing that can't be fixed without a memory card format change.
 
We are however in the middle of 1.96.3 testing.  We can't make it dynamic without major surgery, but Its trivial to bump the limit from 10 to 32.  We'll make it so for 1.96.3-final.

Will we increase the number of VGroups to allow for the %^$$*&$ New York ballot, and if so, when, or have we arrived at a wall?

Greg, there are 14 VGroups defined in the database,  but we can download no more than 10.
GEMS-1-18-8 will have more informative error message.

GEMS 1-18-7         
 
Get this error when trying to queue the Vote Centre.  Gone over the candidates several times without success.  Don't know where else to check.
