the first in a new technique of uploading results to GEMS. The City of The Following are a list of problems
that occurred on Election Day: 1. Poll workers
setting the demo unit for Election and losing their Demo Voter Cards The worker no matter how many times
we go over it and hand outs we give on the proper way of setting up the demo
continue to do this. There has to
be a way that the unit can be set so that the poll worker does not have to set
it up. I spoke with the registrar
about a demo Spyrus unit, but she did not like the thought of the poll workers
having to deal with this. 2. Card getting
stuck in the card readers We started with 11 spares at the
beginning of the day. By 3. Unfortunately the city did not find
this before they signed off on the ballot. The precinct split that was
missing from the unit was fortunately the smaller of the two in each location. They were able to switch over to
paper ballots in each location and continue voting seamlessly. We got Accu-votes out into the precinct
for counting at the end of the day, and we manually entered the info into GEMS. 4. Two Memory
cards became corrupted One card failed during the day, just
after a voter cast her ballot. The
poll worker said she turned in her card and when she sent the next voter to the
station it gave her the download screen.
The second card happened when trying to upload at the elections office. In both cases I was able to look at the
card and the file name had changed from “CurrentElection” to the
same as if the election had been deleted.
I was able to get the results back from both cards. Kerry Martin Election Support Specialist Diebold Election Systems Mbl: (214) 642-9040 |
