| Glossary Term : | VVPAT | Definition : | | Comment : | We point out that while there are definitions for VVPAT-Ballot Box, VVPATPrinter
and VPAT-Display, the Glossary has no definition for VVPAT. There is a
definition for Voter Verified Paper Audit trail that reads, “Voter-Verified Paper Audit
Trail (VVPAT): See Voter Verified Audit Record.” The definition for Voter Verified
Audit Record reads: “Voter Verified Audit Record: (1) Human-readable printed
record of all of a voter’s selections presented to the voter to view and check for
accuracy.”
As drafted, then, one may construe that the rules for a VVPAT do not apply only to
Direct Recording Electronic (DRE) systems but to all printed records of a voter’s
selections. | |
