NJ VVPR Criteria available for comment by 4/16

by: Ann R

Thu Apr 12, 2007 at 01:53:01 PM EDT



The New Jersey Division of Elections has a draft of  the criteria for voter verified  paper record for DREs and  are accepting comments on this draft  filed by April 16th.
go to their web site to for the PDF of the criteria. Comments can be filed on line at the NJ Division of Elections website.

A question I have  on the first paragraph of the criteria:
How could the AG determine that there was no commercially available  technology  for  printing a VVPR or Ballot ? We can always switch to a paper ballot. We could hand count all votes or buy  op scan machines.  There are no great voting machines out there yet.  New York State's imminent large purchase of voting machines should get the manufactures hustling to  design a machine that is reasonably accurate and trustworthy. As of now there is no such machine on the market.
I hope Sequoia can come up with a good printer that doesn't jam or break down... but if not we can't go back to DRE voting  without a paper trail. It's wrong and HR811 will probably be in effect by 2008.
