Attached are the modified 1033 TSText files. These will appear in the 1.18.10 TSText release. It has the “Cast Blank Ballot” change, and the color consistency changes requested by Rob.

In the TSText directory, there is a file RVD_NoVotesRecordButtonText.rtf. It is supposed to say "Cast Blank Ballot". It instead says “Cast Ballot”. If we make it say the right thing, then at least the user would be making a pretty obvious choice when pressing the button. The most recent cast blank ballot text should look like: ATTENTION You are about to cast a BLANK BALLOT, which means you have not voted a candidate or Issue. Touch Review Ballot to go back to vote # OR Touch Cast [Blank] Ballot to vote a blank ballot (the [Blank] part is my edit). This seems to be pretty big/obvious from here. Is this what they are seeing on the screen? The VIBS warning is a good point. It is a trivial change, notwithstanding the fact that I don’t know who is responsible for recording the new audio. We’ll include this in 4.4.1.

Maybe a blank ballot warning should be a full page warning and require voter action to cast the ballot. Keith Long Maryland Project Manager keithl@dieboldes.com 615-828-4106 http://www.mdvotes.org/
