Comment :  "… Verification of correct transmission shall occur … prior to the voter completing casting of his or her vote."

Comment:

I-6.5.2 The final sentence of this section assumes this is a device using the transmission during vote capture but that is not always the case.

Recommended Change:

I-6.5.2 "When data transmission is used during the voter's vote entry process, verification of correct transmission shall ensure that the correct data is recorded on all relevant components prior to the voter completing casting of his or her vote."
