I've been needing to get clear on this as well. I see in our
standard import specification that Record Type 4
(VCenter/Reportunit/Baseunit (Polling/Precinct/Levy)
includes Voter Reg numbers for the base unit. Since we run the initial import
prior to registration closing using the ELECTION>IMPORT>STANDARD IMPORT
option, I assume we use the ELECTION>IMPORT>IMPORT VReg option to import
the final reg numbers.
Here is the question: Does the County
simply RE-RUN the same export file after registration close that we used for
initial import and our program only selects the VREG data? What do
sites do that don't run an initial import for ballot layout, but want to import
reg totals by baseunit? Is there a seperate import spec for just that or
do they have to follow the Standard Import Spec format?
