Section 2.2.7.1.2.2.2.1- The ATI of the Acc-VS shall provide the same capabilities to vote and cast a ballot as are provided by the other voting stations or by the visual interface of the Acc-VS.

The term “same capabilities” is very broad. (Write-ins written on the back of a paper ballot meets the standard of the “same capability” but does it meet the intent of the requirement?)
