Usually when a ballot is cancelled, it is because the voter has the incorrect ballot style. So leaving it active would not help the poll worker, since they would have to create a new voter card with the correct ballot style any way. I would opt for number 2, just erasing the voter card. If we are logging that the voter card was cancelled within the Ballot Station software, then I see no reason to have to flag it cancelled for the Poll Book. -----Original Message----- From: owner-support@gesn.com [mailto:owner-support@gesn.com]On Behalf Of Talbot Iredale Sent: Friday, April 20, 2001 2:08 PM To: Global Support Subject: AccuVote R6 & Cancel Button To all support and sales people; Everyone in the field that I have spoken to has informed me that the Cancel Button on the Ballot Cast Screen must be hidden from the voters and that cancelling a ballot requires poll worker intervention. Since these people have run TS elections I must defer to there judgement unless I hear otherwise. When a ballot is cancelled what should happen to the voter card. There are three possibilities. 1) Leave it a lone (i.e. active) so it can be used again. 2) Erase it as is done when a ballot is cast. 3) Mark it with a flag to indicate it is cancelled (this is what the current AVTS unit does). If so what is the reasoning for doing this? Tab
