| Section : | 6.8.3.5 | Page no. : | 41 | Line no.: | 4 | Comment : | 6.8.3.5 If the normal voting procedure includes VVPAT, the accessible voting station should
provide features that enable voters who are blind to perform this verification.
We suggest the inclusion of an additional requirement related to 6.8.3.5 (e.g., 6.8.3.5.1) to
strengthen the security of the verification process by blind voters. This requirement had already
been included (as requirement 3.3.3.5.4) in the preliminary report from NIST “Draft Standard for
Voter Verified Paper Audit Trails in DRE Voting Systems (DRE-VVPAT)”. The text of this new
requirement could be as follows:
6.8.3.5.1 If the accessible voting station includes audio equipment by which the entire VVPAT
capability and verification process can be carried out, the verification process shall obtain the data
related to the audio device either directly from the data sent to the printer or directly from the paper
record. | |
