Background: Based on feedback from registrars, we are battling
the concept of printing a Voter Record of the voter's choices on a piece of
paper. Yes bad idea. I suppose it would lead to some multipart printer
that would provide one copy for the Registrar and one for the voter. NONE
OF US THINK THIS IS A GOOD IDEA...so we are battling.
Request: It would give us some ammo to have a summary of the
voter's choices displayed in summary form on the last page along with the review
and cast ballot buttons. This way the voter could review, verify what they
voted for, and then press Cast ballot on the same page (or go back and change
it). Our competitors (Hart) do this and it is a minimal step necessary to
fight this printout idea. We may or may not win this. Apparently the
Brazil system does this in some fashion and has gotten some
attention.
